Do I have a win-sound card?
I just bought a new machine (at work) and it came with both video and
sound on the motherboard. I tried (briefly) to get XFree to work with
the on-board video controller, but to no avail (other than at standard
VGA resolutions). I used instead the video card from my 'old' machine.
I did not have a sound card in the 'old' machine and I was interested
in getting sound working.
The motherboard is made by Amptron and is a PM-9100. The description
of the sound is "SB 16/PRO compatible with DirectSound 3D support",
"HRTF 3D Positional Audio Technology with full duplex stereo",
"Supports 44.1K digital audio-in (SPDIF)" and "Windows NT/98/95/3.1 and
MS-DOS supported by drivers"
This last statement makes me doubt that I will get it to work, however
I though I would ask the list. I compiled in sound (SB16 with appropriate
addresses), but - so far - to no avail.
Does anyone have any experience with such a motherboard?
Thanks for any assistance,
Paul Rightley
