Windows 3.1-9X용 비프 스피커 드라이버 (PC Beep Speaker PCM Play Driver)

사운드카드가 없는 PC에서 메인보드에 내장되어있는 PC 비프용 스피커를 통해 PCM인코딩(.wav 파일)으로 된 소리파일을 재생할 수 있습니다.

요즘 PC스피커는 대부분 10원 동전만한 '압전스피커'로 되어있어, 소리를 제대로 내긴 힘듭니다. 아직도 윈도98 사용하고 계신다면 재미로 설치해보세요.

예전에는 사운드카드가 비싸 사운드카드를 달지 않은 PC에서 사용했었습니다.

PC-Speaker Drivers for use with Plug-In for Windows
===================================================

Introduction
------------

  This archive contains a set of drivers which will allow you to utilize
  all of Plug-In's sound capabilities using the standard PC-Speaker. 
  Please note that this archive is packaged as a courtesy to users of
  our products (Plug-In for Windows) and is not intended for general
  distribution.

  This archive includes two drivers, the PC-Speaker driver from
  Microsoft and a PC-Speaker driver from John Ridges.  The driver
  from Microsoft has a little more control than the one from John
  Ridges.  In particular, it allows you to disable interrupts,
  which provides for cleaner playback.  However, the Microsoft
  driver does not support MCI, which is needed for Plug-In's
  talking clock.  MCI support is provides by John Ridges' driver.

  So, there are three options available to you:

  1) Install both drivers.  As long as you install the Microsoft
     driver before the John Ridges driver, you will get the benefits
     of both drivers.  We have tested this approach and it appears
     to work without problems.

  2) Install only the John Ridges Driver.  This will allow you to
     play all sounds.  However, Interrupts are always enabled, which
     means that the sound may be scratchy if you do something which
     generates interrupts (such as moving your mouse).  The benefit
     of leaving interrupts enabled is that you will be less likely
     to have other problems with comm and network programs.

  3) Install only the Microsoft Driver. This option will not allow
     you to play the Plug-In talking clock.

Instructions for use:
---------------------

  1) Unarchive the contents of PISPEAK.ZIP to a floppy disk
     or temporary subdirectory on your hard drive.

  2) Run the Windows Control Panel. (Usually in the "Main" group.)
     Double click the "Drivers" Icon.

  3) Click the [Add...] button in the "Drivers" dialog box.

  4) Select "Unlisted or Updated Driver" in the list box labeled
     "List of Drivers" and click the [OK] button.

  5) Type the path to the directory containing SPEAKER.DRV or
     SPEAKR.DRV in the edit field and click the [OK] button.

  6) If you want to install both drivers, select "Sound Driver for
     PC-Speaker" and click the [OK] button.  If you only want to
     install the John Ridges Driver (or if you already have the
     Microsoft driver installed), select "Ridges Sound Driver for
     PC-Speaker" and click the [OK] button.

  7) You will see a dialog for Setup. For now just click the [OK] button,
     later you can modify the settings if you wish.

  8) Setup will ask if you wish to restart Windows.  If you are installing
     both drivers, select "Don't Restart Now" after installing the Micrsoft
     Driver and return to step 6 to install the John Ridges Driver. 

  8) Restart Windows.

  9) Note that once you have installed these driver(s), you may remove
     the setup files from the temporary directory on your hard disk.
     However, you should save PISPEAK.ZIP in case you need it in the
     future.

Notes for the Microsoft Driver
------------------------------

  The PC Speaker driver may not produce high quality
  sound on all computer systems.  The performance
  of the PC Speaker driver is largely dependent upon
  the hardware itself.  Microsoft does not guarantee
  that the speaker driver will work with all
  computer systems.

  "Enable interrupts during playback" Setup Option
  ------------------------------------------------
  By default, the PC Speaker driver disables all
  interrupts while playing sounds for optimal sound
  quality.  As a result, you will noticed that the
  mouse cursor, keyboard or other processes will not
  respond while sounds are being played through the
  PC Speaker.  You can set PC Speaker to enable
  interrupts for serial port activity and mouse
  movements in the PC Speaker setup dialog, at the
  expense of sound quality. 

  To set this option:

      - Run Control Panel
      - Open the Drivers icon
      - Select the Sound Driver for PC Speaker from
        the list of Installed Drivers
      - Choose Setup
      - Select or clear the Enable interrupts during
        playback check box.

  Note: It may be necessary to select this option when
  running some communication applications.

Notes for John Ridges Driver
----------------------------

  Like the Microsoft speaker driver, this Internal Speaker driver
  plays exclusively, so Windows will not run programs or respond to
  the user while sounds are playing. Unlike the Microsoft driver,
  interrupts are not disabled, so you don't have to worry about
  losing COMM port data or network connections. Even though it
  sounds OK with the interrupts enabled, if you do anything that
  causes a lot of interrupts (such as moving the mouse) the sound
  quality will suffer.
