Aaah, you've gone straight to the Ancient One, Windows 95, the progenitor of an entire line of operating systems. Don't be surprised if you feel like an archeologist.

Oh, I know this guide, I found it while looking for those rom thingies. It's pretty good, the package of S3 and Voodoo 2 drivers is very useful too. An OSR is a revision of sorts. After the original retail release of Win95, they made some improvements to it, which could be obtained either as a service pack, or you could just install a revised edition. These OSR's were not released to retail, they were bundled with new computers. Some of the changes in the OSR versions were pretty significant (e.g. support for FAT32 file system), so it is generally recommended that you use an OSR instead of the original retail version. The latest such revision is OSR 2.5, which is what the guide links to, so you're all set in this regard. They probably realized this isn't a very efficient update strategy, so with Windows 98 they made the updated "Second Edition" available as retail as well.

Argh, turns out those drivers only work with pure DOS, so they won't help you. I have a suspicion that the music problem could be related to the way CD images containing both data and audio tracks work. About 10 years ago, when I was playing Tomb Raider 2, I was annoyed by having to keep the CD in the drive, so I tried playing it with a mounted image. CD audio did not work, no matter how I tried. It only worked when the actual physical CD was in the drive. Maybe this is happening to you as well. Curiously, DOSBox does not have this problem - it reads data/audio CD images just fine.

Yes, recording complicates things, since you have to use Daum. Suggestion - try manually setting cycles to a high value (e.g. 200000) and see if lag is reduced at high resolutions.
