Re: [SURVPC] Freeware DOS Sound Recorder? -- sort of...

>This left just one reason I could think of why BM (Blaster
Master) failed to detect your sound card: _CPU_speed_.  AFAIK
older DOS SB programs using many delay loops to communicate with
the sound card.  It's possible that your CPU's extremely high
speed (300Mhz Pentium-II ?) renders BM's delay loops too short
to be usable.  Gary might have second opinion on this...<

CPU speed shouldn't be a problem. BM uses timer loops based on the system
clock, otherwise sound files would playback too fast. If you are using a
100mhz bus speed vs a 66 or 75 mhz bus, that might be a problem, although
I'm running BM on a 400/100mhz system myself. One thing that I am aware of
that can happen on a fast PC is some FM emulation chips will freak out when
BM dings. I've meant to take that out and release a final version but so
far I have not.
