    Audio on windows 95
    « on: July 02, 2009, 08:13:43 AM »
    Okay so i got my computer onto the interwebz, and I also got the driver for my graphics card (after some trial and error). But now I cannot get any audio downloading the driver. In device manager, it says it is there (under TBS montego pci somethingsomething.... lol) and everytime I boot up the computer it is looking for directx 6.0. However, I cannot locate the one for this device. Any help please?

    Re-install your MBoard drivers from the PC's driver CD.

      This is an OEM version i put on a computer with 2000 pre-installed, so I do not have the driver CD. Also the driver on the dell site doesnt provide me with directx 6.0, just the driver for the audio card

        Does anybody know if it is possible to get the directx 6.0 alone as an install?

        Couldn't find a link on the MS site but try this:

        http://downloads.zdnet.com/abstract.aspx?docid=671873


        The latest version of DX that runs on 95 is 8.1.

          Thanks anyway, but I ended up finding a diff comp to install win 95 on which has the drivers for the audio already. Now im just looking for the driver for the following for windows 95:

          STB Nitro 3D (S3 Virge-dx/gx 375/385)
