Aren't *.MMM files included in Windows Graphical Environment with Multimedia Extensions 1.0 (aka Win 3.0 MME) ?

Indeed, .MMM files were included in various Microsoft's products from that era, I've found some on "Microsoft Works - Gateway 2000 Edition" CD-ROM from 1991.

Thanks for the information! I really like Works. My father and me still use it to write letters some and now.
Before MS decided to let it die, it was an alternative for small businesses, too. All the usual features of an advanced text processor were avaiable.
Plus, the WPS file format didn't provide nearly as much as trouble as the many DOC files floating around (then; now they migrated to DOX).
I guess MS feared that Works would make for a better, more professional presentation that the ribbon-ified MS Office of the time. 😁

I kind of found it - https://archive.org/details/windows-for-workgroups-3.1-demo
But there's no .WAV files in this version...

PM sent.

I think there's another version from old-dos site.
I haven't really checked it, though. It merely contains files, no disk images.

YES!
That's exactly what I saw - and HEARD - 30 years ago.
Thank you very much!

You're welcome. I'm glad it's the right one. ^^

BTW, according to this - https://devblogs.microsoft.com/oldnewthing/20 … 25-00/?p=102616 - "Windows for Workgroups came with a network card".
Anybody knows what model was that card?

Edit:
OK, found it - Intel EtherExpress 16, as seen on this video:

Hi, Winhistory had some pictures of the card board boxes and their content I remember.
There's also a picture of the network card bundling, I think.

Same EtherExpress 16 in the German version as well...

Oh, I see, thanks for the info! 🙂

I think that's a good thing, maybe. So WfW had an official NIC bundle, beyond national boarders, I mean.

So EtherExpress 16 was some network card counterpart to Windows Sound System, maybe.

If so, it would be worth being emulated in PCem/86Box.

I have little experience with intel NICs, though, I think. I'm more familiar with Etherlink III (3C509BC).
