PC Sound System Plus
(250-1701)              Windows95 Installation        Faxback Doc. # 17300

The PC Sound System Plus does work in Windows95, but Windows 95 will not
load any 32 bit drivers for it.  If you select Device Manager in Control
Panel it doesn't list anything for the PC Sound System.  If you are
upgrading from Windows 3.1, just run the upgrade and the sound card should 
continue to work.  

If it does not DO NOT go under add hardware.  First, there is not a listing
for the PC Sound System Plus or anything compatible.  And even if you try 
to use the "have disk" option it is looking for a *.inf file and the sound
utilities disk doesn't have one.  To get it to work, follow these steps:

1.  First verify that under device manger there is not anything listed
    under sound, video and game controllers.  If there is remove it. It
    will cause a conflict the drivers on the install disk. 

2.  To begin the installation of the drivers, click on the start button on 
    your tool bar, select "run"  and then type  a:install a: c:.  This will
    create a directory called C:\SP2

3.  After it has completed creating the directory and its sub directories
    go under add new hardware and select sound,video, and game adapters. 

4.  Then select the have disk .  It will by default look at the a drive. 
    Click on browse and change to the c drive.  Back out to the root 
    directory ,then open the SP2 directory and go to the windows 
    subdirectory. It should by default select the oemsetup.inf that is 
    located in the directory.

5.  After loading the oemsetup.inf file you should see a box called Select
    Device with two drivers on the screen to choose from called:  

    Multimedia Sound Card FM Synth
    Multimedia Sound Card Wave/Midi  

6.  Select Multimedia Sound Card FM Synth and click on ok .

7.  To install the wav/midi driver tell windows you don't want to restart 
    and then repeat steps 3 through 5.

8.  After you select the the wave/midi driver and tell windows to install 
    it.  It will ask you about the DMA and IRQ settings.

9.  After that restart windows and assuming you selected the correct IRQ's 
    and DMA you should have sound.

NOTE: These drivers WILL NOT appear in the device manager.
