Advanced embedding details, examples, and help! By default, Windows 9x versions don't get sound because it's no longer officially supported. These drivers have been tested on VMware Fusion 8. For Windows 95 , before installing the drivers, you must shut down your VM and edit its main vmx configuration file.
Remove all pciBridgeN. This actually made some sound come out of the speakers, but it is completely distorted, and it plays sound like theres a gaps in it or something. How do i get the sound to work clearly etc? Thank for your help all, Kev. What type of card is it? Sorry, lol I missed that. Make sure your using the right drivers.
Why the Virtual Win 98 system? Just curious Last edited: Apr 10, And some games in DOS Box run too fast. I have just discovered actually that it's not the sound quality that's bad quality or anything, but it's going really fast, this includes videos, when i play them, they travel at superspeeds!!! Messages: 17 Likes Received: 0. Do you enable SpeedStep? There is a known difference in how the audio is configured in the 5. However an adjustment must be made in the. But you do realize that even old Windows software actually requires Windows, right?
Yes, but generally there are better ways of running old games that don't involve installing Win98 in a VM. If you're talking about "compatibility mode" in Win7, it doesn't always work. Even Microsoft's solution for programs that don't work in compatibility mode is to run them in XP on a VM, which they offer to Win7 Pro users for free.
I opted for 98 instead because I don't have any XP programs that can't run in Win7, and 98 requires considerably less resources. BTW, if you have an actual recommendation, just come out and say it rather than playing these silly games. Well, for the purposes of gaming, I've discovered it is well worth the money to just hand your money to GOG. Kinda like back when I was a linux junkie I handed someone a stack of money to make games work well there I think it was cedega?
Quote: BTW, if you have an actual recommendation, just come out and say it rather than playing these silly games. You seem to be getting overly defensive for no reason. I'm giving you the best advice I can with the info you've given us. There is so much variation in running older gaming that there is no one size fits all answer.
However for a majority of old games there are simple solutions such as DOSBox or other methods. I'm not saying you might not need Win98 for a specific thing, but for "retro gaming" it is almost never required.
I've experience in getting old dos games to run in Windows, all the way back to Win3. As I said, I'm no n00b. And systems like dosbox or scummvm are useful for getting less cooperative ones to run.
However, the problem I was looking to address here is strictly with older windows games. Sure, popular "retro gaming" usually means dos, but some older windows games don't cooperate either and compatibility mode only goes so far. I wouldn't go through the trouble to setup an entire OS if it wasn't necessary. I used to run 98 in Virtual PC and it worked well enough. Merely wanted to try VMware, only to find that the features I was looking forward to didn't work in I also tried the new version of Virtual PC that was put out for Win7, but I was having too many compatibility issues with For instance, the new tools don't support older OSs.
When I get the chance, I'll give VirtualBox a try. Try virtualbox? Win98 works great for me on it. LordDaMan wrote:. Major General Thanatos wrote:. Wheels Of Confusion. Ars Legatus Legionis et Subscriptor. Have you tried Virtualbox?
