Hello Eric,
thanks for the continued help!
I booted the PC with FD13LGCY.iso (CD-ROM) and afterwards selected

Bad command or filename "MKEYB"
Am I doing something wrong?
You probably don't have a proper P
DDMA is one of the options and it is not working on modern systems. This
ESS Solo-1 has special WDMA mode, but it can be enabled only using a
specific pci instructions that you need to manually send when booting DOS.
I have added some comments at Vogons here:

How is this compatibility achieved? DDMA?

Hi Zbigniew,
This is really grasping at straws here, since this would require
re-writing HMI drivers to use said cards. Lots of DOS games either have
them statically linked into the exe file, or use them as loadable
modules a'la dynamic libraries. I'm not saying it's impossible, just
tough. A

There was an attempt to bring some order into sound-related things under DOS:

Hi there Zbigniew,
I've got bad news. This likely isn't gonna work for you.
On the MB960, the ISA slot is implemented using the famous IT
PCI/ISA bridge.

That fine ITE bridge alone is allright - but the

But not everyone is willing to search for old -- now "obsolete" -- mobos
and other peripherals; still there is other solution: to get _new_ modern
