There is a version of VDMSound for Win9x. Check again.

If you mean Grand Prix 2, by Geoffe Crammond and MicroProse, then I SEVERELY recommend running it in Pure Dos if possible: It was known to make early P3's cry (in terms of resource use... It came out about the same time as P2-500's), so I don't think trying to run it in Windows is an optimal solution. If you DO have to run it in Windows, get GP3 or GP4.

I have a problem with GP2 on My pc with a 98 SE System with a C-Media 8738 Sound card and everytime a run game with the sound under the windows when i come back to the system my pc freezes there is a way to resolve this problem . I tried the VDM Sound but it´s not works under the win 98.The only way to i run this game is mute.

There is an alternate solution, besides the Windows 9x version of VDMSound. In the C-Media web site you will find an old set of VxD drivers for Windows 95/98 (*not* the latest WDM drivers for 98SE/Me/XP/2000). I had my share of problems with both of them, but one or the other may work for you.

Anyway, before anything else, please tell us what driver you have in your machine. Go to Control Panel, System and check the properties for your sound card under the device manager. If in doubt, please list all the devices that show up under "Sound and game controllers". Some additional info may also help us a lot, such as complete system specs (motherboard, CPU, cards).

No need for "all caps", thanks.

Have you tried running the setup program and adjusting the game's audio settings? For example try setting for AdLib only or just MIDI (making sure to match the port for your sound card).

Ok, I just tried to say that you can have different results with either the latest drivers or the old VxD ones. Based on my tests I also know that you have to disable the standard SoundBlaster emulation driver provided by Windows 98SE if you want to try the 9x version of VDMSound with the lates drivers, so I wanted to be sure about your configuration before proceeding.

Take a good look at this thread in the VDMSound Development forum: showthread.php?s=&threadid=900.

You will find the links for downloading VDMSound for Windows 9x, including two sets of updated files. Please read the thread carefully and remember that it's still and *alpha* version, so it may or may not work for you.

He said to try the OLDER VxD DRIVERS. Pay attention.
