Hello again,

I posted earlier about the CD-ROM package, but I had the wrong
information about the sound board.  The board is the Pro Audio
Spectrum Plus.  Now for the same questions:

Spectrum Plus.  Now for the same questions:
Spectrum Plus.  Now for the same questions:

Is this board compatible with the Sound Blaster like the
Thunder board?  Can I use the Sound Blaster driver for it
is OS/2?  How is it comparing to the Sound Blaster Pro 16?

Thanks for the reply for the last post.., but I was told wrong
about the PAS 16, it is actually the PAS Plus..     Duc

Only difference between PAS16 and PAS+ is the + only does 8-bit record and
playback at 44.Khz.... PAS16 does 16 bit.

That`s not the only difference! The PAS-16 is hardware-level SoundBlaster 2.0
compatible, the PAS Plus needs a TSR to run for SB compatability. The PAS-16 is
like two caeds built in one!

Are you sure you're not thinking about the plain old PAS?  I'm
pretty sure that the pair of cards PAS+ and PAS16 came out at the
same time and both used the SB clone hardware.  It was the original
PAS which didn't have SB hardware compatibility, and DID use a
TSR.

Nope! A fried of mine just bought a PAS Plus and he still needs the TSRs! The
PAS Plus is definitely NOT a hardware SB compatible! But, the PAS-16 is the
best buy anyway.....

Bye,
