If anyone actually got sound and music to work in FreeDOS with PCI sound
cards on modern or near modern Desktop systems (I.E. Motherboards that came
out around the time when the Pentium 4 motherboards and all way to the
present, motherboards that lack support for NMI and DDMA) I would like to
know which sound cards you tried and how you got them to work in FreeDOS.
I'm sure most Pentium 3 Boards and below still have DDMA and NMI support
thus SB/SB16 emulation shouldn't be a real problem.
