Subject: RE: [LIB] Sound on 110CT (again, I know)
From: Eduardo Duca <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
I see in list historic about sound on DOS games in Libretto...
But I dont have sucess : - P
I set in AUTOEXEC.BAT
SET BLASTER=A220 I5 D1 T2 P330
SET MIDI=SYNT:2 MAP:B
(yes... thast my config in BIOS or in Device Manager in Windows)...
Adress IO 220, IRQ 5 DMAs 0 and 1 and MIDI port are 330 (I dont know
really that port are for MIDI keyboard (0x388?) or for midi sound output)
T is Sound Blaster Type.. and I have tried 1, 3, and others.. but in
110CT manual tell me thasts sound cart is compatible with Sound Blaster Pro
v3.0... and the options in T sad Sound Blaster Pro and Compatible are set 2
and 4
Anyone had sucess using Win98 and runnin old DOS Game with sound (Sound
and Music (MIDI) ?)
I remember a long thread I started years ago on the topic of sound in DOS.
Here's the 1st post I could find abnout it in the list archives:
http://www.technoir.org/libretto/list/2001/msg00532.html
It turned out that I hadn't loaded the Libretto sound drivers for my 50CT,
and was just relying on the sound drivers the Windows 98 installation had
supplied. And they didn't support sound in DOS.
Hmmm... checking the archives further, I can't find my original post about
loading the right sound drivers fixing the problem. I did find this post
where I discovered that I had to boot directly into DOS via the F8 key in
order to get audio working in DOS:
