strangely DX8.1 seems to fix the soundcard issue...so no need to install WinME.

My point being that you'd need a second parallel port (in addition to the integrated one), if you wanted to use an OPLxLPT for music and a Covox Speech Thing or DSS clone for digitized sound output at the same time. Unless the PS/2 machines came with two parallel ports out of the box, but I'm …

Not exactly the main toppic but does someone know larger IDE harddrives to 8GB via jumpers on the drive. I know that there are some ide-drives that can be limited to 32GB but I do not know any drive to be limited to 8GB via jumpers on the drive. Thx Doc

The combination of a Disney Sound Source, Resound 2 or Plaid Bib, and serial-port MIDI (either via SoftMPU or modified drivers) would provide a fair amount of coverage. Now I got my hands on that Model 57 and I had some trouble of getting it working but now it does. I will checkout the options that …

The other thing is the build-quality. Most matrox cards were very well made and had lot's of good components on the board.

If there is some interest I can make a tutorial to setup amithlon with mga-myst, and show something like that e.g. https://www.pouet.net/prod.php?which=59136

If you talk about bilinear filtering....my opinion is that early cards that do not support AF tend to look very blurry with only bilinear. To my eye have software-rendering like image but fast and smooth is a hugh benefit the only downside is the missing alpha-belnding. that ruins much more that the …

MGA Mystique is a real nice one. Drivers for lot's OS (WIN3X, VESA, OS/2, WINNT, WIN9X, NATIVE AMITHLON!) GUI-Accel. is nice and fast, drivers are really good, image quality is excellent. MGA100 is a problematic one, I have some issues with it, but G200/400 are nice cards! drivers still for most OS …

After some time and a fresh install of the midi devices I have done wrong, don't know what I did, tested some thing and can not find out why my midi-devices play the music way too slow. Strange, I messed it up. What should I look for? I don't think it's the LPT card, neither the XTAHD...
