Hi all, I am glad to see things continuing here
I have been away for a while, just back.

I have set up a new -old system and
am trying to configure it to play some of
my library of older games, and am having
problems with the sound,

I set up a Win 98SE system with 20 GB
HD and 512 RAM, plus a Audigy Z3 Sound
card and Geforce FX 5500 Video Card with256
RAM, which I am hoping will play the olddies
up to the more reasoanble new ones like URU
and so forth. My tech who set it up said it
would play the older ones fine, but so far
Discworld I plays fine but NO sound at all, and
Heart of China ditto, plays fine, but no sound.

My previous 98SE office computer used to
play everything fine, it just has an old Soundblaster
Card and simple video card, Kyrandia, and all
were fine with all sound, I just tried Discworld
on it, and got the sound effects but no music and
Heart of China would not even start, it says:

unable to initalize the sound driver, sound card
interrupt is already in use by another card.

from my research , my office computer has
a netword card in it and may be causing that
problem.
my own computer may need VDM? Not sure,
do you have any thoughts? I would appreciate
any suggstions.
thanks in advance.
