Audio Controller

The board is compliant with Microsoft PC 95 revised / PC 96. It has a full
duplex codec, and supports a volume control on the front panel.

Drivers

Drivers for the audio board, working with the Windows NT operating system,
are supplied with the computer. These are required since the board is Plug-
and-Play, but the operating system is not. It is the user’s responsibility to
avoid conflicts with other devices using the same resources (such as IRQ,
DMA and I/O lines). The user can use the configuration manager to change
the board settings, choosing either the default configuration, or changes to
any of the parameters.

Windows for Workgroups 3.11 drivers rely on ICU and its configuration
manager, which must be installed. Windows 95 is a true Plug-and-Play
operating system, and does not need such drivers.
