Yes, please list what onboard sound chipset you're using.

That's a very bold statement!
I don't suppose you could point me in the right direction for finding a DOS driver for my motherboard's onboard sound chipset.
The motherboard is an ASUS A7V8X and according to the manual the sound chip is the Realtek ALC650 (AC'97 compliant audio CODEC for PC multimedia systems).
I've spent ages on the net searching for a driver and have found nothing.
Thanks in advance.

Have you tried http://www.driversguide.com/ for your DOS drivers? It's been very helpful for me.

I know there are definitely Linux drivers for this chipset, but DOS? That would be nice, as I have the same board, and DOS drivers for it would be cool.
I don't know how hard it would be to take the Linux driver and port it to DOS, but it seems that it would be feasible. The source is freely available.
