If you are wanting an internal PCIe card, it is possible to score a DataPath Vision RGb E1s for under $170. Sometimes they can even be under $100.

Been testing the VGA2USB someone I know sent me. It seems to work pretty decently for what it's able to do. It does, however, have issues with some things like JROK's clones of Pac-Man/Ms. Pac-Man and the monochrome mode of the Atari ST line.

Curious, how does this affect games and demos reliant on the 70Hz refresh rate? I remember reading some programs have some sort of issue or another if ran at another refresh rate.

JROK's accurate clones of Pac-Man (Pac-Em) and Ms. Pac-Man (Ms. Pac-Em) run at what seems to be a scandoubled 288x224 mode at 56Hz if using the fullscreen option.

Yeah, it seems to be missing some chips on the 60l/SC512N1-DVI/L. I wonder if those chips might be how that card handles it? Sadly, that one guy on YouTube never responded.

Epic Pinball and Jazz Jackrabbit are also good ones to test.

The big thing is the 70Hz refresh rate. I believe that alone would make transcoding to component impossible. @bushmac Now that makes me wonder if the PEXHDCAP60L / SC512N1-DVI/L would have the same issue. Especially regarding games that switched to that tweaked 60Hz ModeX variant.

Huh! So the USB3HDCAP and XCapture1 actually work for DOS capture.

Ah, that's pretty useful. Probably beyond what the PEXHDCAP60l and SC512N1-DVI/L can do (though as mentioned before, someone did show that particular model CAN handle DOS input, but still skeptical about it working right on driver revisions beyond 140).

Curious: how does the DVI2PCIe handle games that switch refresh rates? The two big DOS titles I know that do so are Epic Pinball and Jazz Jackrabbit. I alao tried to get in touch with Modern Vintage Gamer about the Micomsoft SC512 regarding that, but never got a response.

Yeah, and this was from a fresh install and update. I will see if copying the Galaxy driver from my Unreal Gold install will do anything. Also will see how it works with A3D-Live installed.

Yeah, that is basically the only way for me to play it. Was just wondering, since I read inconsistent things on other sites that people supposedly got the original audio driver working in newer versions of Windows.

Yeah, gave it a shot with NX Bit disabled. Wound up the exact same result. I'm wondering if there's something with Windows 10 (as well as versions going back to 7) that breaks compatibility with the Galaxy audio driver for the game?

Nope, still doesn't work. Here is what happens

Thing is, I can't generate a report. The window just freezes as the game opens up. I switch over to the new OpenAL renderer, and the game runs as intended.
UT99 Galaxy Audio Driver Crash Win10
Posted on 2017-07-13, 16:13
Curious, has anyone had UT99 just outright crash on Windows 10 with the Galaxy Audio Driver selected? I mean, the game works just fine on the Win98 box, and on this if I have a different driver selected. Just curious as to why Galaxy crashes.
Re: Golden Axe, Double Dragon 1 Joystick Problems
Posted on 2017-07-12, 18:05
I happen to own Golden Axe on the original 5.25" disks. I can confirm that 100% movement to either side of the horizontal axis counts as dashing (which is just a double-tap of left or right on any other port). It was sort of a dumb gameplay change for DOS. Moreso given the game is little more than a …

Yeah, running some of the more demanding Q3A demos (managed to convert Via Arena, NV15, and Kyro 2 demos to work on Point Release 1.32), and lord, is the performance horrific. NV15 demo resulted (640x480x32 with sound on) in an average of 21.6fps. While not exactly related fully to this issue, I …
Re: List of motherboards with SB-link (PC/PCI) header
Posted on 2017-06-29, 16:17
I gotcha now. It's a shame that the board seems to also lack decent performance with universal AGP cards. The PC/PCI connector does make for a worthwhile backup plan for a proper Yamaha card at least.
Re: List of motherboards with SB-link (PC/PCI) header
Posted on 2017-06-28, 21:39
I'm confused, why would the SE440BX-2 board that I have include the PC/PCI connector if it already has a Yamaha YMF740-C integrated into it? Wouldn't that defeat the purpose of having the connector in the first place?
