SB128 + Mediator = JUNK.
« on: January 28, 2003, 11:10:52 PM »
OK, I've posted this before but since then I have tried other stuff.
This time, I FORMATED the entire drive. Blank.
The SB128 was installed power off, HD Blank.
I installed 3.9 with CD driver.
Then I installed Mediator MultiMedia CD and now the Mixer gives a "Software Failure" error on bootup and the whole thing takes a CRAP.
Is there a step I am missing? Do I have to delete paula.audio first?
Is the Mediator disk kaput, or maybe I got a bum sound card?
Mediator cliams that once you install Picasso96, Cybergraphics 643D, that it is ready to go.
Any ideas please???
 :-?

Well, the voodoo card works great without a GFX card.
The issue is with MIXER locking up my Amiga.
I went to Ya ya ville via the link at Elbox.
There I searched the archives only to find that the Mixer that comes with 3.9 REALLY IS A BUGGY PIECE OF CRAP.
I think I'll stick with Paula, she works pretty good for an old lady!

I have a Voodoo 3 card already. It has been working like a champ for a long time.
That Mediator software is causing a failed boot, even with Mixer deleted out of startup-sequence.
I am in the process of deleting all SB128 files so I can get on with using my Amiga.\
I'll say it again. Paula might be old, but she still rocks.
Retarded Fury is right. I am wrong. Great White not White Snake.
But, I can assure you that it rocks when Paula feeds the 200W amp (real amp, not a powered speaker) and together they rattle your bones!

Now that you mention it, why are so many people so keen to get a sound card?
A 20 year old amplifier will still fill the house. Maybe my rock and roll ears are shot and I can't tell the difference anymore :-)
