Audio missing #53

Open GammaBoost opened 6 years ago

GammaBoost commented 6 years ago

Whenever I start a newer version of windows (like 3.1, 95) it does not play the windows startup sound. It only plays beeps when I start a computer or have an alert. Do these machines have audio cards or not? If not, please add some. If they do, please fix this problem. I hope you can add this feature. Thanks!

Currently only the pc speaker is emulated. Adding support for sound cards such as the ad-lib and soundblaster cards are not really worth it or important. Even though i can't hear games i can deal with it being quiet.

Thanks for that. I wish you did add them, but It's fine if you don't want to.

No audio support other than the PC speaker has been added yet. Maybe that'll change someday, I'm not sure.

There used to be a setting (or was it a driver?) to channel Windows sound output via speaker. I had it on all unattended "server" machines back in pre-NT era.
