Video Game Reviews of LucasArts Archive Series: The Monkey Island Archives
Customer Review: Awesome Classics, and I can fix the sound problems too!
Summary: 5 Stars
Those who are experiencing problems running the music correctly in Monkey Island 2 are doing so because of a soundcard incompatibility, as Slackersmurf previously pointed out. However, instead of tinkering with the CMD line of the dos program, I can recommend downloading and installing VDMSound, a free program that's easy to find on google. This nifty little plugin emulates Soundblaster compatibility on ANY soundcard you may have. Once installing it you can simply right-click the DOS game from its folder and select the "run with VDMS" option. I used to have a soundblaster AWE64 card, and since upgrading my computer I'm thrilled to say that VDMSound perfectly matches the tunes and sound effects they way I remember them. This doesn't just work with MI2 either, it has been tested and proven to work with hundreds of classic DOS games. I hope I've helped cure some buyer's remorse for a few people, enjoy the game the way it was meant to be heard!
