Re: Looking for old Gainward GeForce BIOSes

Yes, I've seen the Gainward BIOSes, unfortunately they are not "late enough" for my case. My Gainward is the GeForce4 PowerPack! Pro/600-8X, the one with 64 MB of 128-bit memory. I'm trying to make some cards compatible with my new display (Lenovo P40w-20, via DVI to HDMI), because they boot with a …

Re: How about a MR-BIOS ROM file repository?

Got this I-Bus SBC today: Intel 82430HX MR BIOS V3.57 Build: V098I5MC Date: 05/27/98 This is very interesting. Not only is this a new Soc7 image, but it's also the first I see a MR BIOS firmware newer than 3.46. The question is, what new features are there? And whether it's possible to somehow …

Re: Looking for old Gainward GeForce BIOSes

Unfortunately, these go back to the GeForce 6xxx series, just 1 generation above of what I need. In the meantime I've found a collection of whitebunny BIOSes which contained one (noname GeForce 5500) useful for me. I wish someone backed up the mvktech.net collection. Or at least a contact to Mavke, …

Looking for old Gainward GeForce BIOSes

I'm playing recently with the DVI ports of old (pre GeForce 6) nVidia cards and I was looking for VGA BIOS updates for some old cards. Currently I'm looking specifically for some Gainward GeForce4 MX440 8x BIOS. They were once available at Gainward's FTP , but are long gone. I've found some 440 8x …

Re: Struggling with EMM and Ram (Win 98SE)

Okay, P2B with Windows 9x should be fine by default. The thing you might need is more conventional memory and this can be done by enabling UMB and letting some DOS stuff into UMB. You can do it by using EMM386, but on the P2B UMBPCI should run fine and wont’t force you into protected mode at every …

Re: Struggling with EMM and Ram (Win 98SE)

You don't need QEMM for EMS under 98 SE. QEMM is quite aggressive by default, and without basic understanding of what you are doing it will do you more harm than good. Are you trying to run your DOS game under Windows or do you start/restart the PC and go to MS-DOS mode? If you're launching it under …

LocalLoadHigh=1 buggy on Windows 9x?

I've recently played a bit with UMBs on 9x, and I've triggered something, that looks like a bug. After adding LocalLoadHigh=1 to my system.ini 386Enh section, .bat files end with the MICROSOFT WINDOWS POP-UP PROGRAM SUPPORT message. And this will happen on batch files, as simple as a one-liner …

Re: Working around MPU-401 bugs in SB16

On Windows 9x with PnP or pseudo-PnP Sound Blaster cards, it should be enough to change the port in the Device Manager. The Creative drivers will sync these settings with the BLASTER variable and initialize the card accordingly in DOS mode. From there I take a route similar to yours, I use a …
