I'm searching for a fully functional 100SB with 2 Shades, since mine doesn't work correctly.

If someone does have the board just for display purposes, I'm willing to exchange mine plus additional payment.
[If not I'll buy your Board without any exchanges of course ]

What I have:

- A functional 100SB without shades
- 2 functional shades
- they just don't work together and that's thanks to the board itself, since I have 2 definitely functional shades

They driver just won't install correctly when the shades are installed, the board alone works fine.

I hope someone can help me

OK I'll do that

Hopefully I can find one first of all

you can send me you board and shades and i test them
maybe there is a combination and we can use both all the shades




here a pics from my card

Hi, I have some information, maybe it can help you.

I have a 100SB-4440 also, with 2 shades.
When I install the driver, it also does not work correctly.
Finally I resolved the problem.
Look below...

When I put 100SB-4440(4400+2shades) into the computer,
and install the driver, it CAN NOT work correctly.

When I put 100SB-4400(without shades) into the computer,
and install the driver, it CAN work correctly.
Then I shutdown the computer, and pull the 100SB-4400 out,
and put the two shades on 100SB-4400, and put it into the computer again,when the system started, everything works well.

That's all...


I do not know if it is the correct method, but it DOES work.

Some old card whith daughter cards have the same question,
I remember that I have drived a Diamond MultiMedia MonsterSound MX100 long long ago, it has a daughter card, of course, in the same way I drived it.

Thanks for your help, but if I remeber correctly I already tried that.. I'm not sure though, so I will try it in the next days and report back

What's about Exxe's idea? Maybe your shades won't work with your card but with Exxe's one. So he can test them and maybe find a possible combination.

1.0 If I install the driver (regardless of OS 95/98/ME/NT), after first Boot only the desktop-background shows up, in the taskmanager is only rundll32.exe, nothing else. If I end the task, all icons etc. appear. After this, the behaviour is similar to what happens under 2.1

1.1 If I install the card without shades everything works fine.

2.0 If I put the shades onto the card AFTER it was correctly installed the system boots normally.

2.1 If I launch display properties then or try to start a glide game the following message appears: _GlideInitEnvironment: glide2x.dll expected VoodooGraphics, none detected.

3.0 I know Surrimugge
