Hello to all! My name is Andrey.
It's my first post here. I am sorry, my English is poor, but I hope that you can understand me.
My native language is Russian, if here is someone, who can r/w in Russian - weIcome.
I have relatively modern main pc - i7 3770, asrock z68 pro3-m, 8 gb ddr3, ssd, hdd, dvd...
Main OS is w7 x64, but i also use xp, linux, and 98 all in multiboot on one hdd. here i have no problems anyway.
My 98 is heavy patched: vbemp, vcache, some other good known here patches. also i do own patch for biosinfo.inf for disabling acpi - my mobo have buggy bios, and without patch i just get black screen. Also here exist biggest bug with USB mouse - she absolutely unusable with 9x...
But in general, system is stable and relatively workable. i can even run daum pot player and see mp4 hd with software only decoding, sure.
i do it just for fun. Me it interesting, understand?
And i have one problem... Here is no sound!
I try use my old cs4281 pci card - and get poor sounds on this machine. most sounds disappeared total. On my second machine - pentium 3 - it card work better, but anyway poor. Also for p3 i have good sounds with cs4235 and ess1869.
And now i want try run HDA in 9x... Not need talk me, that it's impossible - i know it but want try.
I check realtek's sys with wdmcheck - there no unimplemented imports. But it driver must be install on child device from hda bus...
I grab w2k version KB888111, convert it's inf from unicode to ordinal Chicago format, and get ms uaa bus placeholder in device manager. but without child subdevices - hdaudbus.sys will not runned...
I try add to inf pair strings a la
Hkr,,devloader,,*ntkern
Hkr,driver,,"wdmstub,hdaudbus.sys"
And get error code 2. Then i try configmg instead ntkern, and get no errors and no good result...
I poor know inf script possibilities, and me need someone, who have good knowledge here, and can give me some hints and tips...
Hope for understanding and your interest
