ok... i must install before load the sound:
- install it use install.bat... and the VCREDIST.EXE must be installed;
- then i add the dosdrv.bat shortcut on 'startup', on Start Menu.
- now i can play the games with sound... but too low volume 🙁
but i need more information:
1 - can i change the volume? i load it, but seems low.
2 - some games, like Prince of Persia 1 e 2, seems using the speaker and not Sound Blaster... why?
3 - i get the background music on DOOM 1 and 2....

Stop using VDMSound.

VDMSound is dead. It has kicked the bucket. Deceased. Expired. Bereft of life. It rests in peace. It is no more.

It was a useful bridge to add game compatibility with older systems that were too slow to run DOSBox. There are certain scenarios where it was not only the optimal choice, but also the only one for certain features. I wish it had continued to be developed.
