Als Geek Lab | Sound Blaster 16 Vibra PnP Installation for MS DOS @AlsGeekLab | Uploaded May 2020 | Updated October 2024, 21 hours ago.
I needed a sound card for my Compaq 486. So I got a #soundblaster 16 from Ebay. Stupidly I just thought that all ISA SoundBlaster cards work just by setting jumpers and making a tweak to your AUTOEXEC.BAT. Not in this case, it's a Plug n' Play card from 1995, more designed for Windows 95 or better.
This video shows you how to physically install the card into a PC, as well as configure the card with the Creative CTCM tool in DOS to make the card work in Plug n' Play mode. Then there's a demo. Where I play DooM. Of course!
The link to the drivers is: philscomputerlab.com/creative-labs-drivers.html - You need the sbbasic.exe and the ctcmbbs.exe file.
