[comp.sys.ibm.pc] Speech drivers and DRAM Series compatibilities

zenith-steven@CS.Yale.EDU (Steven Ericsson Zenith) (04/08/90)

I'm having real problems getting a SoundBlaster board to produce speech
from my Multi-media Comptons. I asked this question here a while ago, and
had only one response. Clearly I'm missing a device driver and it was too
optimistic of me to assume the Creative Arts would supply one, which they could
only do if there was some agreed standard regarding speech generation.
So I now assume that all sound cards require specific support, and my next
question has to be; does anyone out there have a speech device driver
which will work with a SoundBlaster? You know, something I can add to my
config.sys file. Is this too optimistic a request?

I'm still interested in a reply to a request I made earlier for details
of DRAM compatibility. Precise: can I plug 11000 series DRAM into a board
designed to take 41000 series DRAM? Ditto, 88256 and 44256.

Thanks,
Steven.
