Hey, I picked up an IBM 5160 with this 8Bit ISA Memory Card. My issue is I'm unable to find any information online about it, nor find anything similar in Total Hardware 99 to help me guess the dip switches. It has 6 banks of memory (0-5), I added banks 4 and 5 with supported ram but it is not …

I did some testing tonight and I have to assume it's something with the board. S3 Trio 3D AGP 2.0 (Works Perfectly) ATI Rage Pro Turbo AGP 2.0 (Monitor light goes green but no video) Voodoo 3 3000 AGP 2.0 (Monitor light off, no video) Voodoo 4 4500 AGP 2.0 (Work Perfectly) Voodoo 5 5500 AGP 4.0 …

Updated the bios to 1006.002 which made no difference. The system appears to post fine but no video, the AGP Pro Universal slot should be fine to supply 3.3v. I assume by the lack of replies I'm sorta on my own with this, likely I'll try to swap the power supply and if that makes no difference move …

Hey Guys, just wanted to confirm what I am seeing with a system I am building. I have 2 Pentium 3 motherboards I'm working with Asus CUSL2-C with modded Tualitan 1.4ghz Asus TUV4X with Tualitan 1.4ghz The Voodoo 5 5500 AGP works on the CUSL2-C with it's AGP 4x slot but doesn't work with the TUV4X …

I think I'll go with an AWE64, Sound Blaster 16, and the MPU-IPC-T in the Time Machine, I did pickup a simple AV Switch but can't find a simple mixer cheap yet. For the 486 I'll throw in the Sound Blaster Pro 2 and the Sound Blaster 1.5 so I can get a good early system with Sound Blaster and Game …

Hmm, I think I confused the CT1600 which I have with some information online about the CT1350 a Sound Blaster 2.0 not a Sound Blaster Pro 2. I thought I had checked this but it's possible I didn't have the connection right or mine has an issue with the line-in or the line-in was disabled via the …

Hey all, I've started getting into building some older systems this year and due to some lucky local hauls I got a good amount of items but can't seem to pick what would work best in combination. I'm looking to build 2 retro systems, a "time machine" per Phil who frequents these forums which is a P- …

Thanks guys, I'll pickup some of these dual ones off ebay. I'm alittle sad as the Monoprice ones are nice with a backplate but I'm still not able to set a cd-rom as the slave if the CF adapter is primary. Have any of you been able to setup a CF adapter and card as the master and a cd-rom as the …

Not sure if anyone else is having this issue but I'm unable to get any IDE to CF readers work if I have both setup on an ide chain as master and slave. I bought some nicer IDE to CF from Monoprice which have a jumper for this setting but one drive overrides the other. I am able to set them both are …

So I got around to looking at this, Keropi you were correct that the capacitor looked good even after removing but appeared a little loose. I replaced it anyways and found 2 cracked solder connections which appeared to be grounds under the 3 midi ports. I fix that with some extra solder and tada, …

The evidence just keeps mounting, the second pic does show some of the brown and dis-colouring that I assumed by electrolyte. I'll look around for any issues with the PCB and swap out the capacitor if need be. Thanks for all the info keropi, I appreciate it.

If it is glue then the 2200uf cap is the only surface mounted capacitor on the board, perhaps someone can take a pic and we can see if this is normal. It's also possible with the flash the picture I took just doesn't give the correct detail, but the brown's and mustard colours as what I'm used to …

Hmmm, I could be wrong I guess... though there is no other glue on the main board. I've replaced quite a few caps from older video consoles and that looks pretty consistent with what I've seen. This issue with this unit are quite numerous Headphone jack doesn't work RCA Output sound is extremely low …

So after testing with an amp the output is still extremely low, after opening it up and inspecting the board I found the large 2200uf 16V capacitor has leaked. I will purchase a new one and replace it and continue testing. Not sure if anyone see's any value in me documenting the teardown process or …

Thanks for the info, looking at it again I'm pretty sure the headphone port is broken (the volume seems fine as it does affect the slight volume out of the RCA output) but it also seems to have other issues. While testing every so often when playing the built-in midi songs the unit would power cycle …

Hey Guys, I'm pretty new to the Retro Gaming scene but I've been able to collect a large amount of items for next to nothing in my city. I'm having an issue with the Roland SC-55 MKII that I got and just wanted to confirm the behavior I'm expecting is correct and that the Mini-Headphone jack is …

Hi all, been creeping this forum for awhile and starting looking around for any Roland stuff in my area. I was able to find a Roland S-MPU/AT for nothing but looking online it appears to be pretty useless without the breakout box for the midi connection. I would be looking to use this with an older …
