Hi,
I've just installed FreeDOS on my old P120 mHz, 32 mb RAM PC. Everything work
just fine with the exception of the sound card. This PC has an ISA
sound+modem card (never saw a things like that before) and I've also
installed a 5-6 or even more years old PCI soundcard with yamaha chip (I

Unfortunately mpxplay failed to detect my sound cards. I still know nothing
about those ISA card, but this PC was made in 1996, so I think the isa card
should be at least soundblaster compatible, but previously there was win98
installed on that PC and it always failed to detect any isa.
And the
Ok, I've just removed it. As I said before it's looks like a modem+soundcard
and it's damn big (bigger then some agp cards). The sound chip is: "Chrystal
CS4218-KL".
And I still don't understand why it can't play cd-audio.

I've find some drivers here for this card
(http://members.driverguide.com/driver/detail.php?driverid=71335)
but as I can see those drivers for windows. Is there any chance that I can
make them work in FreeDOS?

Yes, that was a rather stupid question about win drivers for DOS.
And is there any tip for a 100% DOS compatible PCI sound card? I mean no
drivers, etc needed?
Thanks in advance!

On Monday I'm going to visit some PC shops which sells old hardware. Is there
any tips about those ISA soundblaster cards? Which model, manufacturer, etc.?
Thanks in advance!

The exact model No. is: 2176352.

Ok, I've downloaded a MS622 boot disk, So I'm going try to install the driver
with this kernel. Or should I use 5.0 version instead, because as I know
FreeDOS is compatible with 5.0?

BTW my HDD is formatted as Fat32, so I think this is the problem.

I've booted from MS floppy but after that I don't know what to do next,
because the only device it can see is the A: floppy drive. To install mvawe
drivers I need two floppy to start the installation and copy the files to the
hard disk, but since when booting from MS floppy only the floppy drive
I've converted my HDD to FAT, so for a "clear experiment" I can try the MS622.
As I understand I should now boot from A:, then install the mwave drivers and
allow them to overwrite the autoexec.bat and config.sys on MS floppy, then
reboot from floppy again and see if the mwave drivers were corre
I've managed to install the mwave drivers with the MS boot floppy and there is
no error messages while loading the drivers. But I can not test the sound
because every applications which use sound says that there is no enough
memory to run. I've setup the MS config.sys on floppy to load DOS high,
I've modified the FD autoexec.bat and config.sys, but it still comes with an
error message like: "MCB chain corrupted, or MS-DOS incompatible system".
Probably it's not a big problem, because when FD boot I can hear some sound
from speaker (like when you turn it on) and the same sounds was with
Unfortunately there is only Windows drivers for my CS4280 PCI card on
driverguide dot com (and of course it supported by newer versions of Windows
and by Linux/BSD kernels) and as we now know the Mwave drivers for DOS or

Thanks, but I've allready checked the things with MS-DOS floppy. What I know
now is that with MS I get no error messages, but I still can't check is the
sound driver work, because apps which use sound claims that there is no
enough memory. So actually I know nothing :)

Finally I've purchased a Vibra 16 sound card and now the sounds work!
Just want to let you know. :)
Thanks everybody for help!
But I'm ready to test that Mwave card I have to fix the incompatibility we've
recovered.

Hi,
No, as I said I run it in a pure DOS environment on a PC where only FreeDOS
installed. I think probably something not write display configuration is used
for those applications. And a full-screen probably not the right definition,
but unfortunately I can't explain it with other words. It's l

I've tried to install the latest release (0.9 SP2) of FreeDOS from
floppy sets and from CDROM. When I've installed it from floppies it give
me an error that it can't find some required file (something like
testinstall.exe or so). And when tried install from CDROM it give me a
lot of error
