I have a weird random problem with a SB16 PNP card. The card does not need drivers at all, just boot DOS and run a game and it should detect it.

But i have seen games that dont detect it. Or games that detect it sometimes and other time it does not.. For example.

When i run commander keen4 it gets detected always, I always get sound

When i run commander keen6 it does not get detected, but when i set it up i can choose the music but not the sound effects.

then i tried replacing the config.ck4 to the keen6 folder and renaming it config.ck6 and the game now has sound fully, but sometimes i run it again and the sound is not detected.

I have also seen some issues where i run wolfenstein3d when i run it i get no sound, and i have to actually go into the game settings and enable sound blaster, I hear all the sounds, but after 3 or 4 minutes of playing the game freezed.

Im using a Pentium3 700mhz. Could that be the problem? PC is too fast?
Or should i consider a full capacitor recap for the card?
