I have a Creative Vibra128 PCI soundcard and I want to configure it so it will work when I boot the system with a DOS diskette. What should I do?? there are no DOS drivers for this soundcard.

There *is* DOS driver for your PCI sound card. You should be able to find it from a google search.

Hi, a quick visit to www.driverguide.com has led me to `sb128dos.ZIP' and there may be more as i've seen mention of `SB-V-DOS.ZIP' for a model `CT-4810', i think... A swift check for it on Google, AllTheWeb/FTP and Yahoo didn't help but it's possible i wasn't using the magic words. Good luck anyway. :) Oh, about DOS & W2K-SP4, MS-DOS v7.10a (W98) is a perfect complement if you can have two bootable partitions, but it's a long install.

For Win98, it is a long install; but for MS-DOS 7.10, it is a very short install. Please note that DOS and Windows are different! More information is available from:

Yes Wengier, W98 means a long install and MS-DOS 7.10a a short one indeed but i had no choice to launch W98 in order to install W2K from it when i tried. A bootable CD-R drive should have helped, i guess, but i don't recall if it was configured as such or not. I wouldn't mind to verify this by trying again but the CD-R on my present PC (T6600C + SCSI Matsus---a-Kotobuki CR-504B) isn't bootable - unless you got a hint? ;^)
