New WIN/OS2 driver (from Roderick Klein)
Behold everyone, a XMAS gift... Its finaly here! The all new generic WIN/OS2 driver. Tested as good as possible! If your soundcard works in native OS/2 you can have the same support in WIN/OS2! This driver supports wave playback/record and MIDI playback.

News:
  • Works faster because the audio data from WIN/OS2 is delivered straight to the driver of your soundcard. (Don't worry it won't break MMPM/2 support!)
  • MIDI playback first did not function properly in WIN/OS2! Why ? In some cases TIMER0.SYS blocked because it was used by the audio driver. To fix this John has written a new TIMER0.SYS. You can also download this from the link found below.
  • And most importanted, read the manual!!!! The next version will have a graphic installer!

If you get NO sound, check the amount of expanded memory you have set for the WIN/OS2 session. It needs to be put to zero! John has been looking into this but its something funny to do with the kernel.
This is the wishlist to add later into the driver:
  • Soundblaster Pro or 16 emulation for DOS sessions
  • Full duplex support for WIN/OS2 sessions (if the OS/2 driver supports it)
  • Make this faster interface avaible in native OS/2 to programmers via a DLL.
  • Maybe MIDI in for WIN/OS2 sessions.
