Re: Wanted: Windows 2000 driver for Adaptec ANA-6922 NIC
Posted on 2023-12-18, 23:22
No, unfortunately the NIC does not work with the standard tulip/DEC21143 drivers. Neither with those bundled with Windows 2000 nor with the ones Intel supplied later, and not with some random other vendor's. Usually the ports do not get initialized (yellow exclamation marks in Device Manager), or, …
Wanted: Windows 2000 driver for Adaptec ANA-6922 NIC [Solved]
Posted on 2023-12-17, 10:01
The official driver package only contains drivers for Win9X, OS/2, WInNT etc. Microsoft lists the card as unsupported. The generic Intel driver also does not support this card. But: According to some very old posts in some forums, there was a driver for Windows 2000 floating around that works. Does …

Re: Success: Adding a PS/2 mouse port to the Shuttle HOT433 (using a dedicated keyboard controller chip)
Posted on 2023-03-15, 09:25
The PS/2 worked perfectly fine with my Avocent KVM (tested with Microsoft Mouse driver and Monkey Island). All I can suggest is to try a different KBC. I used a Mega-KB revision F. I must have pulled this thing off of something decades ago. I never thought I would end up using it. Indeed: Using a …

Pulled it from an old board. Have to admit that while PS2 keyboard and mouse connectors work completely flawless with a real keyboard and mouse, they do not with my KVM (Belkin OmniView Pro 😎: I get lost keypresses, double key presses, and the mouse does not work at all.
Re: Here's a weird one: Anyone know anything about "Extended EGA"?
Posted on 2022-09-13, 23:28
The Schneider Tower AT is said to support 800x600. It came with a multisync monitor, and had a GEMINI VC-001 EGA chipset with 256kByte graphics RAM. AFAIR I once tried in in Win 3.1 (must be 20 years ago), and it was flickering like hell. I also remember Ironman Super Offroad offering a 64 colours …

There are also -12N and -10N chips sold on Ebay. Yes, they are all fake, so ignore the printing on the case. Upperside and underside. Completely. Over the last years I've ordered ~100 pieces from different sellers. Not because I'm stupid enough to get fooled multiple times, but because it's damned …

Have a Schneider Tower PC which also uses the 26 pin connector. The original floppy drive, a Sony MP-F17W-58S (1,44 MBytes), died decades ago. The pinout is the same as with the EuroPC. Tried to build an adapter but never could a standard floppy working. Motor spins, head seeks, but always shows " …
Re: My 486 UMC8886/8881 Project
Posted on 2022-03-20, 14:58
Update: Note: The board runs Windows 98 with L2 in WB mode because the HighPoint driver runs the controller in a kind of fallback mode since there is a problem with the BIOS' IRQ routing table. Since the routing table is now fixed by a BIOS hack, it is no longer possible to run it in this mode. I …

Don't want to necrobump (if that's possible in a forum about old stuff), but: I removed the middle diode and soldered on a coin cell holder. Works, but: The coin cell only lasts a few weeks. After 1-2 months they're empty.

dr.zeissler from http://forum.classic-computing.de was kind enough to create a BIOS dump of 1.07 for me. I've split it into High and Low parts for the two EPROMS.

Yes, Soundblaster are supposed to work. And yes, some cards have trouble with 12,5 MHz bus speed, e.g. Trident VGA cards: They tend to start in monochrome mode with 12,5 MHz. But using 6,25 MHz does not help anything with the Soundblasters: As soon as a sample should be played the machine freezes. …
Looking for Schneider Tower AT BIOS
Posted on 2016-03-28, 17:08
Has anybody here a Schneider Tower AT? I own a Schneider Tower AT 260 (286 with 12.5 MHz). It's a really nice machine, but I've serious trouble getting any Sound Blaster (or compatible) card to work. I suspect the BIOS is somewhat faulty, causing DMA timing issues. My machine has BIOS 1.05a. From …

No, it has the same core as the Cx486DX4. Similar to Intel's 486 DX4.

Re: ISA VGA output crap on LCD?
Posted on 2014-01-29, 18:41
Don't blame the VGA cards. Does the LCD work properly when connected to other computers (PCI, AGP, whatever) using your VGA cable? If no: Either the LCD or the cable is broken. If yes: Either the ISA machine's PSU is broken or a card sits next to the ISA VGA card that generates lots of electric …
