Driver Sound Card Creative Ct4810 For Win7
What I already tried:- Standard WFWG sound blaster drivers: they are for the non PCI cards correct? I got a card not found on these ones. (SET BLASTER=A220 I5 D1 H7 P330 T6 seems to be added to AUTOEXEC.BAT by the DOS drivers, but when using Port 220 and Interrupt 5 in Windows driver it says: The port setting does not match the card)- apiwiz31 & 7501748, driver packages: doesn't seems to be doing much except kill the autoexec.bat config which I got working under DOS. I can't see a driver being added to Windows 3.11.
The official Ensoniq drivers, I tried (7501748 package). But unless I am doing something wrong, running these drivers doesn't do really much except invoke an installer with not much results. After a restart sound is still greyed out in the sound settings and no additional drivers can be found in the drivers section.
Anyway I was wondering if it's possible to disable AdLib Emulation for CT4810 sound card under DOS. I have Windows 98SE/MS-DOS 7.10. I installed these drivers for CT4810 "Creative DOS Drivers for the AudioPCI and Creative versions of that card" Drivers work fine but AdLib emulation gives me a headache. (I also tried to install Ensoniq drivers but couldn't get sound card initialized with them.) I don't know how to disable AdLib emulation. I have set synthvol to zero from C:\DOSDRV\SBMIXER.EXE but that doesn't always help. Some games set the volume to whatever number, eg. Realms of Chaos sets it to 121 right after I run that game. 127 is the max setting. If I choose Sound Blaster or Adlib sounds as music for this game it also causes picture to shake if I move around with the character. This does not happen if I choose Wave Blaster or General Midi as music option. Game runs smoothly if I do that.
I have also YMF724 audio card. Under DOS I use it only for FM because I haven't gotten sound blaster sounds to work with it. Sound Blaster sounds get me "DMA: Disable" and many of the options inside C:\DS-XG\setupds.exe are greyed out. Under Windows I can use Sound Blaster sounds for YMF724 in DOS games but not all games work under Windows Dos Box.
I use Realms of Chaos as an example again. (Allthough there are many games that have issues with AdLib emulation. Some games play music slower suddenly and then normal speed again.) The game works fine If I either avoid AdLib Emulation or use only YMF-724 for FM music while disabling CT4810 and choose AdLib or Sound Blaster as sound settings for music. Then I get only music and no sound effects. CT4810 drivers use AdLib Emulation so if I play this game with both sound cards enabled I hear double sounds for the music. FM by YMF724 sounds good but I hate Adlib Emulation sounds from CT4810.
I have opened SBPCI.INI from C:\DOSDRV folder and there are some settings I can change but I see no line for Adlib Emulation or FM. No port address or enable setting (true or false). I have tried to manually add that but I have not been successful with this. I have no idea what correct word to use or would that even work. So far, AdLib emulation remains. If I remove synthfile line from SBPCI.INI or set dummy file I hear no sounds at all. If I set SBEnable=false from SBPCI.INI, I hear no sounds at all. There must be a way to set AdLib Emulation to 'false' somehow. If I remove Synthvol=0 line I get error message when PCI audio driver tries to load and it will simply refuse to load at all.
I will keep playing with both sound cards because some games work better with the other. Assault Trooper works better with CT4810 and it doesn't have FM sounds. Crusader works with CT4810 and naturally it doesn't have FM sounds either.
Got my CVX4 LPT sound card today and have already had some success with it. I managed to get sounds working for Wolfenstein 3D in DOS. Now both FM and digitized sounds work. I am using Virtual Sound Blaster driver. I haven't tried QEMM yet. I am not sure if it works with my computer. I will try that later. Seems VSB won't support any other memory manager than QEMM... I also tried Realms of Chaos with CVX4+YMF724 combo. Works! digitized sounds work fairly well in ROC when using CVX4 in VSB mode. Sounds get broken sometimes. If I quit the game and go back it seems to fix the problem.
I had issues using YMF724 sound blaster mode with Wolf3D. Sometimes game would suddenly speed up or freeze. CVX4 digitized sounds sound slightly different. Game otherwise works very smoothly including FM from YMF card. I had to first execute setupds.exe from C:\DS-XG folder or type "setupds /s" in DOS. (If I tried to start setupds.exe after loading VSB driver, it would not start so it must be done before.) Then I went to VSB folder and typed "VSB /L1 /W /A /I7" If I used irq5 instead of irq7, Wolf3D would cut out door sounds almost all the time. I have set Paraller Port to 378/IRQ7 from bios.
Jazz Jackrabbit failed with all sound cards. (YMF724, CT4810, CVX4) even with sound setup set to no sound card as long as VSB, Creative sound blaster emulation or YMF sound blaster emulation was loaded. Cannon Fodder cannot initialize sound card if I choose sound blaster. If I choose Adlib, YMF724 and CT4810 works. CVX4 failed.
CVX4 sound quality is noticeably worse than the other two so I only use that card as a last resort. Other problem is that CVX4 in VSB mode does not work with games that use dos extenders. That seemed to be the problem with setupd.exe as well but only if I ran that executable after loading VSB.
If somebody is strugling with YMF card and looking for Yamaha generic drivers... I have attached them on this post. It seems the Yamaha download link is still dead. I have attached the Yamaha dsxgdos.exe file into this post and also extracted that file for convenience. It is not DOS executable but the files inside work under DOS. I used UniExtract to extract that file.
I didn't find a way to disable OPL emulation for this card either. However if I set SynthVol to zero, it actually eliminates FM volume completely. I can't hear quiet FM sounds If I crank volume high, unlike I did with CT4810 in some games.
SB Live works very well with Dune 2 for example. Now I can play Dune 2 using both YMF724 for FM and SB Live for Digitized sounds. If I try to use SB Pro mode, I hear OPL emulation so I get double sounds. If I use just SB mode in this game, it works great. I'm using older drivers setupds 3.11 for ymf724 card when I use it together with other cards for FM support and set different sb port than 220. this is to set higher volume for YMF724 FM and avoid OPL emulation SynthVol setting getting higher than zero (Yes, for some reason YMF724 gets lower FM volume If I disable SB port from it). Using SB port 220 for YMF cause SynthVol setting to increase at least with CT4810 card. Not sure about SB Live. I do this just in case. Those drivers disable dma mode. It may help to eliminate conflicts. I use newer setupds 3.16 for YMF724 single card mode together with DSDMA.
If drivers are installed for multiple sound cards, I am getting issues in Windows if I play DOS games there. (Yes... Some DOS games actually work better in Windows with this PC.) I only use one sound card for Windows (YMF724). It works fine alone. I use all four sound cards for DOS mode. Whenever I don't need CVX4, I disable paraller port from BIOS (that's one of the very few things I can do in BIOS with this PC). If I don't disable it, IRQ settings get messed up for other sound cards. Unfortunately I can't reserve IRQ settings from BIOS. However I am lucky because my sound cards usually get these iRQ's after I disable parallel port. YMF724 = IRQ 5, CT4810 = IRQ 3, SB LIVE = IRQ 7. I had to make the CTSYN.INI settings file for SB LIVE card 'READ ONLY' because otherwise I would get SB IRQ 7 and PCI IRQ 7 causing them to conflict. I have made a huge (maybe a bit overkill) DOS start menu so I can easily choose between different sound cards and settings.

ggebhart@clover.netI hope I never get too old or arrogant to learn something new! RE: drivers sblaster 128 pci not recognized bij windows me Guest (visitor)3 Feb 01 09:21Great suggestion !But that's how far so many of us got already...I got the retail version of SB PCI 128, and got no clue which internal "code" (CT-4750 etc.) to use ?!My Part No. 4001045701 Rev.BChip: Creative 5507Which is the right driver then ?User-Friendliness is not the thing this company seems to have in mind ?!Thanx for help ! RE: drivers sblaster 128 pci not recognized bij windows me lgebhart (Instructor)4 Feb 01 09:26I just went to a site with the 5507 and you can use the 4700 or the 4750 drivers for this card. So the driver link I supplied will work for you.You are absolutely right...they do not make that site user friendly. If they are going to use 5507 for a chip name they should give you the CT number too that corresponds to it!Good Luck! ggebhart@clover.netI hope I never get too old or arrogant to learn something new! RE: drivers sblaster 128 pci not recognized bij windows me jimdi99 (TechnicalUser)29 Oct 01 07:37After installing a Creative Labs 56K Modem Blaster, my Windows Me doesn't recognize the drivers of my Sound Blaster CT4810 128 pci soundcard. There are no exclamation signs (!) in the device manager. I went to the Creative Labs site (roxio) and applied the "latest" drivers available - still no sound. When I go to "Sounds and MultiMedia Properties" both the modem blaster "DI5630-5" (set to not use audio features or map through the device) and the CT4810 sound card device are listed, but the audio tab doesn't show any prefered devices for sound playback. googletag.cmd.push(function() googletag.display('div-gpt-ad-1406030581151-2'); ); Red Flag This PostPlease let us know here why this post is inappropriate.
