I have a problem with the sound in the game AIRLIFT RESCUE on real hardware - more precisely, it is an IBM PC 300 GL, in which I changed the sound card from Sound Blaster Live (CT4830) on PCI to Sound Blaster 16 in the VibraC version (CT2960) on ISA - I wanted to obtain the most similar hardware configuration to the time of this computer's existence and keep one free PCI port for future expansion cards like better VGA card (got installed already LAN card and USB 2.0 expansion card for 2 more USB ports). On the previous sound card, both in Windows 98 and DOS, after installing drivers from https://www.philscomputerlab.com/sound-blaster-live.html, the sound in this game worked, but after a longer game, the sounds of helicopter shots, tanks, or hostages dying froze (the music played correctly).
Now, after replacing the card with the CT2960 model, only in this game I have no sound at all - neither music nor FX sounds. In the menu, the music is locked in the off position, but the FX sounds, no matter what I choose in the menu, are silent. In other games, the sound works correctly in both Windows and DOS (in games that have the option to set the sound, the card is detected on ports A220, IRQ5, D1, H5 and P330 and I have to choose the sound blaster 16 music option, because on general midi or MPU-401 there is no sound at all).
Unfortunately, the game Airlift Rescue does not have any option to change the sound and has its settings entered "rigidly". Has anyone had this type of problem with this game and could share a possible solution?
