Two programs to help determine the presence & I/O address of a
SOUND BLASTER CARD.

TESTIO.EXE displays all possible BLASTER I/O address reads.

TEST1.EXE checks for a SOUND BLASTER , and if found, reports its I/O
address.

The QBASIC source is supplied.... its horribly crude and badly written,
but it WORKS !!!!

For those without QBASIC, stand alone EXE files are also encluded.

Finally: I take no responsibility to what may happen to your system if you
run these two programs. TESTIO only reads I/O ports, but TEST1 does write
to 216, 226, 236, 246, 256, & 266. You may have something else at those
I/O addresses that objects (but I doubt it).
In any case...you have the SOURCE... so its your choice !!!

Enjoy

  1. Very nice! Thank you for this wonderful archive. I wonder why I found it only now. Long live the BBS file archives!

  2. This is so awesome! 😀 I’d be cool if you could download an entire archive of this at once, though.

  3. But one thing that puzzles me is the “mtswslnkmcjklsdlsbdmMICROSOFT” string. There is an article about it here. It is definitely worth a read: http://www.os2museum.com/wp/mtswslnk/
