    Microsoft sidewinder problem

    DOS hates digital joysticks Unfortunately, if you're running something in DOS, then a digital Sidewinder stick is useless. I think only the most ancient, first-generation two-button Sidewinder would have worked with DOS... I think if you look hard, you can still find old two-button analog...

    Privateer sound: two-soundcard solution (or not)

    Config, autoexec Bear in mind, I got the drivers for the Creative cards from someplace, don't quite remember where - the file name is sbpci.zip, for what that's worth in a Google search. And also bear in mind, this is NOT a perfect solution, merely one that works. After a while, the sound...

    Privateer sound: two-soundcard solution (or not)

    Cancel that... Pulled the Montego, threw in a Creative Ensoniq PCI - found DOS drivers for all non-Live Creative cards, and they seem to work pretty well - and lo and behold, the machine spoke. As a public service, I will post the working autoexec and config tomorrow, that others might...

    Privateer sound: two-soundcard solution (or not)

    OK, here's the thing. I went through all my old peripherals after I gave up on getting Privateer to not choke on my SBLive; I threw in an old Turtle Beach Montego (first-generation A3D) after I found out that it allowed for a DOS-only installation. I left the Live in and put the Montego into...

    Priv 1 Boot disk not working

    I'm seeing the same problem: I've gotten Privateer to run using a boot disk, but only without loading SBLive's SB16 emulator drivers. When the emulator loads, regardless of the settings I choose for the SB16's IRQ, even with sound disabled in the Privateer install program, the computer hangs as...
