The Creative Music System or C/MS is the first sound card developed by Singapore based Creative Technology, later Creative Labs, and the precursor to their ever popular Sound Blaster line. The C/MS is an ISA card fueled by two Philips SAA1099 chips, which together, provide 12 voices of square-wave bee-in-a-box stereo sound plus two noise channels. It originally sold for $195.00.
The Game Blaster is just a C/MS with different packaging. The two products are physically identical.
The sound card came bundled with various music files that can be found on the Creative Music System (DOS) page.
