Here's the scoop: Was running under DR-DOS 7, switched from loading emm386.sys in config.sys to himem.sys instead. All *seems* well again.
DR-DOS install sets up emm386.sys by default.
Can anyone explain this to me? Why would this cause MAME to lock up with the sound drivers enabled?
: Have a SB Vibra 16 card installed under pure DOS. Card passes all SB diagnostics, but MAME locks up when starting games. MAME runs fine with soundcard set to NONE.
: Any ideas?
: Config: AMD K6-2 400, 64MB RAM on FIC-VA503+
: Creative Graphics Blaster TNT AGP
: DR-DOS 7.02
: DOS MAME 0.56
: BTW, runs fine under 0.35b, DOOM, and duke nukem 2 - looks like something may be wrong in the latest build. Any ideas?
