Thanx,

It's not a problem with the game, most likely. It's probably due to the sound card compyling only partially to the standard required by DOS games. Have you searched for DOS drivers for your card and tried using them? Sometimes it works. I know I couldn't get my DOS SBLive drivers to work, but many people could.Guest wrote:On the other hand, the right drivers must be there, because when I set the game up as if I was using a Soundblaster (or SB Pro) I get vocals and no music. When I set it up as SB Pro 2, I get music and no speech. So maybe the problem is with the game...but still, same result. Any ideas on how to solve that?
I'm not familiar with the ESS1869 card, but I do have one other ESS card, and what's unique about it is that it needs ABSOLUTELY NO DRIVERS to work in DOS. However, since it's not a PnP card, you need to use a configuration program that lets you see and change its port/IRQ/DMA settings. Do you have this program? It should be called ESSCFG.EXE.Guest wrote:So...I have an old ISA card. An ESS 1869. I tried to install it in Win98 with the idea that I could then use it in my DOS 6.22 partition, but it wouldn't detect. Maybe I will try putting it in the slot anyway, and leave the Vortex 2 going in 98, and try to get the ESS to work in DOS.
