Fast 486 Sound Driver Updates
The AdLib drivers (for AdLib, Sound Blaster, Pro Audio Spectrum, Covox and
compatibles) of some of our older games have had problems with newer fast
computers, especially 486/66s. This file contains a number of updated sound
drivers that should work fine on all fast machines.
BEFORE UPDATING YOUR SOUND DRIVERS, PLEASE RENAME OR OTHERWISE BACKUP YOUR
OLD DRIVERS! Go to your game directory and type DIR ASOUND.*, this will show
you the AdLib drivers used. In most cases, there will only be one driver.
Some games also used a separate one for the logo screen. Copy the
corresponding updated driver(s) to your game directory and start the game as
you normally would. Newer games not listed here should work fine as is on
fast computers.
