In response to Eric's post, I just wanted to be able to hear the regular
sounds that a DOS game makes, instead of a crappy version that my sound
chip makes. You know how on a windows XP system, sometimes you hear a beep
that comes from the computer itself and not from the speakers? Well my comp
is pretty much just limited to that beep and barely busts the occasional
"bkkkk" sound in a DOS game (an explosion or something). When you said
"specifics", Eric, I can't really say any one game in particular. But I can
give a few (I found almost all on "DOS Games Archive"): God of Thunder,
Lemmings, and Duke Nukem (It does actually pretty well with d-nukem, but
again, it still sounds crappy). I have found out that in the past this comp
would not put out sound unless there was some sort of speaker plugged in. I
tried that with these games, but to no avail. By the way, mpxplay works
perfectly on the DOS comp (it won't even work on my laptop, despite the
prodding and such).
