SoundBlaster Live! and N2...HELP!!!

4 posts by 4 people · 20 Apr 1999 - 21 Apr 1999

If anyone can help, my SoundBlaster Live! value does not work with N2. I didn't think this would have been a problem since I am running N2 in Windows 95, but I am having no luck. When I go to the Sound setup screen for N2 the autodetect doesn't work and if I manually enter the information it locks up when I click on test sound. Thanks Mike
Michael, Try deleting your sound.cfg folder in N2. Then, run sound setup again. Click on Autodetect. You should see your settings change. Once you have done this, DO NOT try to test the sound. She'll lock up on you most likely. Just exit the sound setup screen. If this doesn't work, you probably have a conflict in your emulation. It assigns the emulation a different irq than the sblive. That can be a little tricker to rectify, conflicts in pci slots are not as easy to resolve as isa in windows. You might try putting the sblive in a different pci slot if this is the case. -- Don Burnette Palmetto Racing Dburn on Ten http://members.home.net/d.burnette/Sportsman%204.htm

Well, I just got my emulation working tonight with ICR2. The funny thing was that while I had to use the emulation device's resource settings in the SET BLASTER autoexec line, I had to tell ICR2's sound setup to use the PCI resource settings that sbeconfig reported.

Try selecting the mono SB device instead of the detected device. N99 will autodetect my Ensoniq Soundscape but the sound will not work in the game (the intro is OK). If I select a SoundBlaster Mono device (use the IRQ and other resources for the SB legacy device in the device manager) then everything works great. -- Header address intentionally scrambled to ward off the spamming hordes. cisko [AT] ix [DOT] netcom [DOT] com >If anyone can help, my SoundBlaster Live! value does not work with N2.
