Hiya, Could anyone help me with some sound setup issues please?

I can get the game to work with just music.

But to setup the sound, you need to tell it the DMA and IRQ. Unfortunatly, on my PC the IRQ is 16, and the game only lets me choose from 0 to 4.

Im hoping i can find a way around this without removing my sound card and putting it in a different PCI slot.

Thanks in advance!

p.s. i tried editting the .cfg files but they are all in a strange code so i cant edit them properly.

hmmmm actually i meant DMA. Its my DMA which is 16 and it only gives me 0 to 4 (or 5?) as an option.

All other games work in dosbox. The dosbox config file says its 220/7/1 but when i look in hardware manager, it says the DMA is 16 not 1.

Dos emulates it so use dos box's settings it will still work.

Indeed. DosBox has its own emulated settings that don't have to match with the ones your hardware manager has.

Thanks for the replies! I notice my settings in DOSBOX seem ok, but i still can't get it to work

I will keep trying tho, now that i know dosbox can emulate it. I'll try changing them and seeing if the game can recognise it. I am also having exactly the same problem with "Blood". Strangely, i have several other dos games that work fine in dosbox with sound.

p.s.
Does anyone know a way to get around the bug where you cant buy or make high powered engines after 1903 (or whenever)?

WOOHOO!!!!! I love you guys Thanks alot for the help.

I learn something new every day.... and when its something about gaming or dosgames... thats very rare.

But you where all right about dosbox. I changed the settings in my dosbox config to 222/5/1 and when i set that up in the sound setup, it worked

Im really happy about that because i love dosbox, and now i know i can get sound working on the games that struggle, im set. I have quite alot of dos games and now they all work perfectly for me


P.S.

If anyone knows how to avoid that engines bug in Motor City, please let me know.
