The application is for OS/2.

No change in behavior, I'm afraid.

Storage / ArcaOS USB floppy drive letter assignment
« on: October 19, 2020, 03:52:09 pm »
I have installed ArcaOS 5.0.6 to a PC with no internal floppy drives.
ArcaOS still reserves drives A; and B: for nonexistent drives, and when I attach a USB floppy drive and refresh removable media, the drive is mounted as E:
Unfortunately, the installation program I run off of the floppy disk is hard-coded to look on drive A: or B:, so it cannot proceed.
Is there a way i can make the USB floppy drive attach as drive A:?

The software is for the Microlab F.A.M.E. from Hamilton Robotics.  We do not have the source code.

Thanks for the reply, but this is basically the opposite of what I'm hoping for.  I need audio intended for the PC speaker to play through the sound card instead.

There is an old pc speaker driver for OS/2.  However, don't know if it would work, especially using a virtual machine.

Multimedia / PC Speaker output to sound card?
« on: April 02, 2020, 07:03:33 pm »
Background:  I am working with medical device software running in eComStation 2.1 on a virtual machine (currently VirtualBox 6.1). The host OS is Windows 10. The software uses the dosbeep API call to generate its audible alarms (which, as you can imagine for a medical device, are important).  Unfortunately, VirtualBox does not support PC speaker output for OS/2 family operating systems.

Is there any way, at the OS level, to redirect PC speaker output (or even just dosbeep specifically) to the sound card?
