A friend of mine just gotten a GUS, and spent the last 2 days trying to
get it to work.  He even went as far as swapping motherboards, cards, and
finally found out that GUS some how conflict with his Trident chipset VGA
card.  Can someone verify this?

Hi!  I recently got the GUS, and am impressed by the sound quality [most of the
time].  The GUS emits two clicks before playing any sort of .mid sound, and 
squeaks when starting and stopping sounds in Starcon2.  But otherwise, the
board works nicely, and does better DACing than the SB.  Also, I have some
games which fail with the SB and work with the GUS [Battles of Destiny comes
to mind].  If I can get it to work under OS/2, then I will finally realize my
dream of playing Falcon3 - it had failed to work at all under DOS [namely the
digitized sounds were very slow - probably my 486-50 EISA moboard speed], and
without sound under OS/2.

But, my main bizarrotronic sistuation is that it killed my Win31 enhanced mode
operation.  After I installed the card, I could not run Win.  I then removed 
the card, and still could not run it.  I reinstalled Win, and could not run it 
then either.  On a whine, I loaded Win with the /s parameter, and voila - it 
works.  However, the big problem is that the GUS drivers are for enh mode.

I tried a fix my one of my friends suggested, namely the VirtualHDIrq=Off 
setting in the system.ini file, but that did not work either.

Incidentally, when I say win does not work, it means that it dumps me back into
DOS just at the point at which the windows background should appear.

My system - 486-50 EISA, 16mb RAM, AMI FASTSCSI-C controller w/ 1mb, Roland
LAPC-1, the GUS, Diamond Speedstar Plus, ATI 8514 Ultra. 

I run win only with XMS, not EMS [EMS screws up Stunt Island, Ultima7, 
Comanche Max Overkill].  So no QEMM problems or anything.

Any help would be phenomenally appreciated.

Does anybody here know what Gravis' plans for the GUS are?

I'm wondering when the card will be "finished"... it sounds like there
are software problems yet.

If I bought a GUS now, are software updates free?  I assume so,
because they are availble via FTP, right?  Also, what about those with
older revisions of the board... are they SOL?

Any info would be helpful...

I've got an old (1988) Adaptec AHA 1542A SCSI controller card and a Roland
LAPC-1 (MPU-401 compatible) sound card in my 386/20DX. My problem is that
Adaptec and LAPC-1 won't work together because they both have the same
Base address 330H. I'm not willing to change the base address of the LAPC-1
because many games and composing programs won't work if the address is any
other than 330H. OK, lets change some hardware jumpers on the Adaptec
(after finding a document that describes them), I thought. But well, well
the system can't find the Adaptec from any other address than 330H.
After checking out the Adaptec's BIOS with Norton, it seems that the 
old stupid Adaptec BIOS is coded to always use base address 330H.

Any ideas? Would it help if I replaced the Adaptec BIOS with a newer one?

Hi there.
Gravis has said that there may be a problem with using SBOS with EMM386.
I've had this problem as well and all I did was unload EMM386 from
config.sys. Try this and see if it works. If so, then figure out if you
really need emm386 running.

We had a problem like that in our lab once. We were installing an ATI
VGA Wonder card in a machine and installed the ati windows driver into
Windwos and all of a sudden. It wouldn't start up in enhance mode
anymore. It took the rest of the afternoon of fiddling aroud with all
sorts of thigns but nothing worked. So we turned off the machine a went
home. Next day, we turn n the machine and everything worked. Enhanced
mode et al. Still don't know why.

The only other time Windows didn't want to go into enhance mode was when
the machine wasinfected with a virus (so scan your machine). Oh, and one
other time when we had a ramdisk that took all of the extended memory
which we forgot to remove.

I have a GUS v2.2 which has been working great for a month or so now.  I
have a concern, though, and was wondering if you call could offer insights
as to the problem:

I have found that when recording something from CD or from a Mic, I get
a background hiss which is quite noticeable.  I played for a while, and
found that the hiss is quite a bit louder when recording in stereo.  I
have tried from 11 all the way up to 44khz (22 and 44 in stereo) and the
hiss remains.  I have tried both playfile and USS8 to do the recording.

Has anyone else noticed this?  Is there any solution?  Incidentally, 
playing MIDI files, etc is PERFECTLY crystal clear on my GUS, so I
don't think the noise is coming from the location of the card in my machine.

Thanks...

Oh why did I rush out and spend $165 CA when I could have waited and

	I looked but could not find the IBM programs for binhexing and 
unstuffing *.tar.Z files.  Anyone out there with information on programs
for the IBM to deal with *.tar.Z please post the information.  Thanks.
