Ego Terrorist Posted July 3, 2003 Share Posted July 3, 2003 Okay I'm looking at getting a sound card for my computer, the reason being is that I want it to work with X-Com Apoc, so obviously I'm looking at a Sound Blaster, however the question is does anybody out there know if a Sound Blaster 5.1 Live OEM works with X-Com Apoc? Failing that could somebody recommend a soundcard that is relativly new that does. I've tried using my mother board's SB pro emulator but that did not work...so if you know any SB pro emulators that can be run from DOS that would be welcome. And finally, can someone please tell me which MS-DOS patch I need to get around the Runtime 200 error? as there are several patches out there but no clear indication as to which one!! Thanks guys and gals! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Strong Bob Posted July 26, 2003 Share Posted July 26, 2003 My SB Pro emulator works just fine. Have you tried tinkering with it a bit? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ego Terrorist Posted July 29, 2003 Author Share Posted July 29, 2003 Not yet, I'm assuming you mean the the one that came with your motherboard? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Strong Bob Posted July 29, 2003 Share Posted July 29, 2003 Yes, that's the one I mean. You don't have another sound card hooked onto it along with your emulator do you? That could lead to some resource management problems. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ego Terrorist Posted August 10, 2003 Author Share Posted August 10, 2003 No, I've just got the motheboard's sound, which is a VIA AC'97 Audio Controller, but the settings for SBpro emulator are available in the bios and I did try to get it to work a number of years ago, but that failed...but I shall try once more!
