The graphics issue maybe caused by VIDEOPRT.SYS that needs to be patched (sometimes it happen that some update will replace back original version)
I mention it here http://www.rayer.g6.cz/hardware/gf7600gs.htm, there's link to http://www.rayer.g6.cz/download/videoprt.zip

For sound try vmdsound or soundfx.
