24 SoundSystem DMX
Driver is installed – this is what it looks like.
After a successful installation of the driver, you should verify that all systems are go with your
Windows 9x system. In Device Manager you get an overview of the installed and recognized
hardware components on your computer. The Device Manager is found in the Control Panel
under System.
This is how the window should look if everything is properly installed. In the picture the item Sound,
video and game controllers is opened. You can do this by clicking the small "+" symbol on the left hand
side.
In case you are interested: the installed drivers are responsible for the following tasks.
DMX DeviceManager The DeviceManager controls, among other things, the plug&play
configuration of the card and is generally responsible for the smooth
operation of the hardware.
DMX DOS Games/FM
Devices
This entry is responsible for compatibility with older standards such as AdLib
or SoundBlaster in DOS.
DMX MPU401 Devices This is where the base address of the MIDI interface is managed.
DMX Multi Device
Enumerator
Sounds cool, huh? This part of your DMX is also responsible for important
system settings and should not be touched.
DMX Synthesis Devices The heart and soul of your DMX. Hidden here is the wavetable synthesizer,
the WAV playback, the 3D calculation, and DirectSound acceleration ... simply
put, all the sound that comes out of the card. Settings can be changed here,
but do not have to be since everything can be done from the DMX
ControlPanel. Therefore we won't go into detail at this point.
Gameport Joystick This is where the gameports base address is set – from Windows, fully
automatic.
