According to my company newsgroup win95 will be officialy launched on Aug 24th
and according to gravis they will deliver the drivers when its released, so
gravis have until then.
Now according to my records win95 was meant to be released sometime at the
beginning of 95 and our friends at gravis said some time last year they would
produce a driver for when it was released. So if you think about it gravis
should of made a driver by now, unless they plan to make one overnight,
i.e the night before win95 actually appears in the shops. Or is microsoft
just waiting for gravis (obviously not!).
Quaetion :
When recording something with cooledit(good piece of kit!) after about
20 seconds of recording i start to get chop\broken up sound. So I guess the
buffers full and needs to write to the disk, now my disk can't write
4megs a second, so I then reduce my buffer to the average write for my disk
and I get less chop, so I reduce to as low as value as I can and things are
better but not perfect. So I presume that I need a disk that can write faster,
is this assumption write. Or another aproach is to get a program like rocket
which claims to accelerate a disk by about 50%, its a super fast replacement
for the dos i/o handler(allows multiple head read/writes), has anyone out there
experiemce with this piece of software.
Next question if gravis produce a new card, is right in assuming they will
send a registered user a letter offering them an upgrade for a reasonable
price, or will this allegeded interwave populated new card be very similar
to my trusty GUS MAX.

Hiyup,
The best bet to get both cards working is to leave the SB at Address 220, DMA 1, and IRQ 7 (Most games like this). I then set my ultrasound to Address 240, DMA 5 and IRQ 5.
1. Change Jumper on Ultrasound to Address 240 (Check the Manual)
2. SET ULTRASND=240,5,5,5,5.
3. Slot in the SoundBlaster (The Defaults should be 220, 7, and 1)
4. Run SoundBlaster Installation program
Voila, a a working S.B. and GUS.
Martin
