I am inclined to think that the Parallels sound driver would most likely work best while using Parallels. I downloaded and installed a 3rd party AC97 sound driver for win95 and it is an improvement, but still in certain apps is horrible (pops and clicks beyond usability). When right-clicking the audio icon in the notification area > Troubleshoot sound problems, it says Audio device is disabled: In the Device Manager (press cmd+R combination > type devmgmt.msc > hit Enter) the audio device is up and running. As far as I can tell this thing doesn't exist. Red cross next to the audio icon in the Windows task bar notification area.
#PARALLELS ACCESS SOUND INSTALL#
To reiterate, installing parallels tools did not install any sound driver into Win95, nor is any sound driver for Windows found on the vmtools.iso image or in the C:/Program Files/parallels/parallels Tools directory after Ptools installation. If you still have no sound, the sound driver is just AC'97, so if you can get that sound driver from somewhere else, like. Parallels 7 and 8 likely don't have this nightmare and it all starts with Parallels 9. Windows 98 is supported under Parallels, just check your Parallels Desktop User Guide for 'Installing Windows 98 as a Guest OS' and follow the instructions there, more specifically, the ones about Installing Parallels Tools. The 'Parallels Virtual Audio Adapter' is worst than a virus that messed up completely my Sound Devices and there seems to be no apparent way to remove it. mentions that PTools includes an AC'97 compatible sound driver, but still no information for where it's located. Unfortunately, uninstalling the app 'Parallels Access' does not do anything. John, page 88 includes a table that indicates a Parallels Tools version for Windows 95 and other versions, but does not mention anything about sound drivers.
