--- Quote from: JoyMonkey on November 26, 2007, 08:21:01 pm ---I've had no luck getting the onboard sound working in DOS. I think I tried about 5 different PCI drivers with the same result.

What do these beasties look like? |

Here is a pic. I am pretty sure that they have, at a minimum, a couple of PCI slots. |
| Ginsu Victim:
They have two PCI slots, no AGP. I own a GX110 that used to be in my cabinet. |

Neat. I just didn't want to be in the same boat as I am now. I got a Compaq Ipaq PC that I thought would be great for a cab since it's so compact. Then I found that EVERYTHING is onboard, with no expansion slots at all. The chipset supports 15KHz, but I can't sort out how to get it to work properly. So since these have PCI slots, that would be perfect. Be even better if I could get the sound to work in DOS. |
| Ginsu Victim:
Never tried DOS on my GX110, so I never tried the sound in that way. I do know that XP recognized the on-board sound during install and it works fine in windows. These support Power On After A/C Failure, so they're great for a cab. The PCI is on an expansion board that lets the cards mount horizontal. The onboard ethernet is picked up during the install, so no extra drivers are needed. I recommend putting in a PCI video card. The onboard video is terrible. |
