DOSCab - Two questions

<< < (3/3)

Silver:
Hey thanks - you are right of course, I hooked up a friends 11b access point just fine (think that was a linksys one - aimed at an Xbox or something, but really just an access point). However at the time I was attempted to build a wireless mp3 player that was very small - no HD, was booting to DOS off a compact flash, mini-itx so no fans, and was going to wireless stream the mp3 to DosCab. So needed a small internal wireless solution (or at the most a USB wireless stick).

 However, Doscab does not stream mp3's, which while is ok for a 3-4 meg mp3 (small delay as file is transferred) I have a large amount on CD mixes in my collection (100meg+) and a lot of high bitrate files (10meg songs). Problem is wireless network is shared, which really kills file transfers when in use, and those big mixes are a no no.

So went with windows, which meant needing an HD, which killed off the project....

Got a little bit of time over the weekend and did get my DOS (W98 direct booting to DOS) machine setup and networked.  I experimented with Bart's Network Boot Disk mentioned above, but ended up using info at http://www.wown.com/j_helmig/doscltcp.htm to get my network connections working.

DOSCab running mostly, but I'm pretty sure I've got my sound drivers messed up.  Used the ones that came with it (ALS 4000), but saw in other threads that there is a better driver out there.  Hopefully tonite I'll get that downloaded and installed and that will cure my problem (song loads, but freezes at 0:00...which other threads indicate is a sound problem).
