Subject: [GUS] CD Audio cable for GUS
I recently modified by CD-ROM audio cable by replacing the connector
with one that will fit the GUS. Since I have a few extra connectors,
does anyone need their CD-ROM cable modified? If so, please send your
old cable along with a check for $3US (mainly to cover the cost of
postage & the connector) and your email address to me and I'll modify
it for you. I hope this saves some money for some you guys. :)

Subject: Cant get any GUS sound with Ultima 8
I wish I could find the words to describe my anger and frustration.
Oh, here, I found some...
I CAN'T GET ANY SOUND OUT OF THE GUS WITH U8!
1. These are the files that look sound-related:
ULTIMA8\AILXMI.DLL 18,568
ULTIMA8\SOUND\SOUND.FLX 1,229,584
ULTIMA8\SOUND\MUSIC.FLX 1,378,135
ULTIMA8\SOUND\A16SBFM.DLL 18,568
ULTIMA8\SOUND\A16MT32.DLL 13,191
2. Setup History Iteration Table (SHIT)
SBOS 3.08 - Hangs with params -x1, -x2, -x3, -o1, -o2, and no params
MEGAEM 2.03 - Hangs with params -mt, (no)-mt
- Haven't tried -RIRQ yet to see if that helps (I doubt
it will)
GUSAIL3214 - I tried renaming the A32... files to be called A16...
This made things worse - U8 exited with a gnarly error
I don't want to play this without any sound, of course. I have
confidence that someone somewhere will figure something out, just
like with U7 and U7.5.
My impression of the game so far is that it's boring without sound!

Noooooo, don't start Chicago talk here. Of course will Gravis have windows
drivers. But you can be 100% sure that they won't come *before* the
release of the final version (probably some time afterthat too).
So, let's wait with Chicago talk for a year or more. Maybe it's out then.
But you can bet Gravis will release the Chicago drivers before the OS/2
one. ***** SIGH *****

Subject: Megaem & Novell 7
Well, since I haven't been able to get my subscription to this newgrp going,
I miss some of the daily posts. I've migrated my system from MSDOS 5.0
to Novell 7. Guess what, Megaem doesn't work! Is says it doesn't understand
or recognize the EMS driver. I use version 2.03 from the gus0041.zip file.
What can I do to get megaem working? Please try to mail me direct since I
can't depend on getting the daily post. You may have to route it thru BRL
with the following:
dnielsen%ria-emh2.army.mil@brl.army.mil
or
danielse%letterkenn-emh1.army.mil@brl.army.mil
thanks

Megaem says I should report the following error on Novell 7:
ERROR: EMM incompatibility problem: EMM internal structure is not recognized.
What to do now?

Subject: SSI's Ravenloft and GUS
I just bought SSI's Ravenloft: Strahd's Possession. Though it is supposed to
support the GUS using the 32-bit drivers, it did not install them itself. I
did this manually, but the sound is erratic. If the music doesn't play all of
the patches in memory and crash, the digital sounds don't play. Anybody else
tried this game? IF so, did you get it to work? How?
