Hi everyone,
I've just rejoined the list after a few months' absence; I was
wondering if you could help me with the follwing:
I've had a TP755c for some time now, and I recently bought a second hand
DockI docking station to use with it. This has an ISA slot in it, as you
may know.
Thing is, I'm trying to get various cards to work in it, and they all seem
to have problems, except an 8-bit Soundblaster. Some cards make the
machine refuse to boot altogether, e.g. Ensoniq Soundscape; others such as
the Soundblaster AWE32 will allow the machine to work - with considerable
tweaking, e.g. disabling EMM386 - but as soon as Win95 (OSR2) tries to do
a 'detect' run, the whole thing bombs. Nothing will detect the soundcard,
either - even DOS games.
As you've probably gathered, it's the Awe32 that I really want to get
working - has anyone out there had any luck with this?
Thanks in advance,
Angus.
