Hello Vogons

this soundcard (i think it is one) is laying around here quite a while and i am wondering what brand/type it is.
Googling was not successfull so far. Maybe some one on the Forum has a clue what it could be ?

Hello, Is there an "FCC ID" mark on the card? I have a very similar one and it has FCC ID J5QMF-001 on th backside which can be looked up on the web as a Preton Technology brand Adlib clone soundcard. BR: Tamas Feher.

No idea about the brand, but the type of sound card is stupidly obvious:
It's an AdLib compatible! The big 24-pin package and the small 8-pin package give it away.
They can sand off as many numbers as they want.

Maybe it has a resistor DAC for PCM sound, as well. The number of resistors on the card is suspiciously high.

No FCC ID on the Card.
But if it's a AdLib Compatible card then drivers shouldn't be a problem.
Thanks a lot !!
