[QUOTE="Lapsang Leaf, post: 1341070, member: 303388"] Hi all, I have tried everything to get sound working on my guest OS Windows 98 SE. Before you ask, I have trawled through the VUSE community threads and tried various methods to no avail. There is nothing wrong with the sound on the host OS. Clearly this is a driver problem, or so I think; I simply haven't got the right driver or possibly even the right lines in the Config Editor yet. And just so you know, I do have VMWARE Tools installed on the guest OS. I've spent a day or so trying to sort this out - can anyone help? If you recommend a driver for me to try, please provide a specific download link. Thans in advance! PS - Let me know if you need any more information (please be specific). PPS - For your perusal, I have included the current state of the Config file below: .encoding = "UTF-8" config.version = "8" virtualHW.version = "8" memsize = "256" ide0:0.present = "TRUE" ide0:0.fileName = "Windows 98 SE.vmdk" ide1:0.present = "TRUE" ide1:0.fileName = "/Users/[CENSORED]/Downloads/Windows 98/Windows 98SE.iso" ide1:0.deviceType = "cdrom-image" ethernet0.present = "TRUE" ethernet0.connectionType = "hostonly" ethernet0.wakeOnPcktRcv = "FALSE" ethernet0.addressType = "generated" ethernet0.linkStatePropagation.enable = "FALSE" usb.present = "TRUE" ehci.present = "TRUE" sound.present = "TRUE" sound.fileName = "-1" sound.autodetect = "TRUE" pciBridge0.present = "TRUE" pciBridge4.present = "TRUE" pciBridge4.virtualDev = "pcieRootPort" pciBridge4.functions = "8" pciBridge5.present = "TRUE" pciBridge5.virtualDev = "pcieRootPort" pciBridge5.functions = "8" pciBridge6.present = "TRUE" pciBridge6.virtualDev = "pcieRootPort" pciBridge6.functions = "8" pciBridge7.present = "TRUE" pciBridge7.virtualDev = "pcieRootPort" pciBridge7.functions = "8" vmci0.present = "TRUE" hpet0.present = "TRUE" tools.syncTime = "TRUE" displayName = "Windows 98 SE" guestOS = "win98" nvram = "Windows 98 SE.nvram" virtualHW.productCompatibility = "hosted" proxyApps.publishToHost = "FALSE" tools.upgrade.policy = "upgradeAtPowerCycle" powerType.powerOff = "soft" powerType.powerOn = "soft" powerType.suspend = "soft" powerType.reset = "soft" extendedConfigFile = "Windows 98 SE.vmxf" ide1:0.startConnected = "FALSE" ethernet0.generatedAddress = "00:0C:29:65:4C:EE" vmci0.id = "1030049006" uuid.location = "56 4d 71 f1 10 2e fa ec-eb 96 c8 2a 3d 65 4c ee" uuid.bios = "56 4d 71 f1 10 2e fa ec-eb 96 c8 2a 3d 65 4c ee" cleanShutdown = "TRUE" replay.supported = "FALSE" replay.filename = "" ide0:0.redo = "" pciBridge0.pciSlotNumber = "17" pciBridge4.pciSlotNumber = "21" pciBridge5.pciSlotNumber = "22" pciBridge6.pciSlotNumber = "23" pciBridge7.pciSlotNumber = "24" usb.pciSlotNumber = "32" ethernet0.pciSlotNumber = "33" sound.pciSlotNumber = "34" ehci.pciSlotNumber = "35" vmci0.pciSlotNumber = "36" usb:1.present = "TRUE" ethernet0.generatedAddressOffset = "0" vmotion.checkpointFBSize = "16777216" usb:1.speed = "2" usb:1.deviceType = "hub" usb:1.port = "1" usb:1.parent = "-1" floppy0.present = "TRUE" floppy0.fileType = "file" floppy0.fileName = "/Users/[CENSORED]/Downloads/win98se.img" floppy0.clientDevice = "FALSE" floppy0.startConnected = "FALSE" hgfs.mapRootShare = "TRUE" hgfs.linkRootShare = "TRUE" isolation.tools.hgfs.disable = "FALSE" sharedFolder.maxNum = "0" gui.viewModeAtPowerOn = "windowed" sharedFolder0.present = "FALSE" sharedFolder0.enabled = "TRUE" sharedFolder0.readAccess = "TRUE" sharedFolder0.writeAccess = "TRUE" sharedFolder0.hostPath = "/Users/[CENSORED]/Public/Windows Partition" sharedFolder0.guestName = "Windows Partition" sharedFolder0.expiration = "never" checkpoint.vmState = "" gui.lastPoweredViewMode = "windowed" tools.remindInstall = "FALSE" svga.spoof16bppHost = "TRUE" pciSound.enableVolumeControl = "FALSE" ethernet0.startConnected = "TRUE" sound.startConnected = "FALSE" usb:0.present = "TRUE" usb:0.deviceType = "hid" usb:0.port = "0" usb:0.parent = "-1" [/QUOTE]
