Don't have any of those games (except for the PC Booter ver of Robotron).

 

VDMSound is for NT4/2000/XP/2003. Sound emulation support under XP/2003 is extremely minimal with only General Midi and Basic SB support (No High DMA support). I personally haven't heard of any cases where the XP/2003 sound emulation is better than VDMSound because it can't be. VDMSound is where it's at if you want to play your DOS games natively under NT4/2000/XP/2003 with as close to as original sound support as you can get. DosBox uses the VDMSound sound code which is why it's sound support is so good.

Nah, it won't conflict. I've heard of some rare cases where 1 or 2 games would get confused and disabling XP's sound emulation fixed their problem. (sound was static)

 

IIRC, XP/2003 use IRQ5 and VDMSOUND uses IRQ7.
