Which Motherboard?
« on: September 09, 2005, 05:23:02 pm »
Can anyone recommend a (currently availble new) motherboard with on-board sound that will work under DOS?  Or does no such thing exist?

I suspected as much, but it was worth the ask.

What sound cards have you DOS owners got running in your MAME cabs?

Onboard AC97 sound works fine from DOS, there's got to be motherboards still for sale with it.

Edit: Here's a bunch of them.

I bought this item on Ebay for my bartop: http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&category=3701&item=5208883097
It works great! I just had to edit the config files a bit to get it working...

So long as your motherboard has an ISA slot. I don't think PC's have had ISA slots in about six years.

If you have a SB you really shouldn't need to worry about drivers. I believe they can still be had at the following address.

http://easymamecab.mameworld.net/html/snddosdr.htm

This is also a great site for helping one setup their DOS machine.
