Necrothread revival. It turns out my SCD-15 has the channels reversed. I never noticed until now. Can anyone recommend someone who can reliably perform this surgery?

I remember when the Media Vision PAS cards came out. They needed a lot of resources IIRC. There was a short period of time where they were at the top of the heap, but a very short time. They were surpassed by better cards. Are you sure you don't want to use something else?

What are you trying to achieve? I believe there exists some VPN mechanisms to route IPX over TCP/IP.
Re: What motherboard for a 1.4GHz p3 Tualitin CPU?
Posted on 2021-09-03, 18:51
I would get something with the i815EP chipset as it's slightly better than the plain 815E. It doesn't have integrated graphics which you wouldn't use. The ASUS TUSL2-C was the best example of the time. Why are ISA slots so important? Is it just for having a DOS era sound card? That's one reason. I …
Re: Let's destroy the 440BX myth :-)
Posted on 2021-08-02, 20:10
Well the ASUS P2B series is legendary. The 440BX chipset is merely "awesome". I have three ASUS P2B-B motherboards. Two are backups. Two of the three had their caps replaced proactively. I run a Slotket thingy to get up to a 1Ghz Celeron Tualatin. I stick with 100Mhz FSB for maximum compatibility. …

Well r4095 works, so that's definitely the problem. I just hate to go back to that for Win31. Thanks.

Is it possible to add a variable for the video memory to the config file? With the 8Mb video RAM, the S3 Windows 3.1 driver shows a black block as a mouse cursor. With 2Mb, I think it would be fine.
Re: Emulation speed issues with 86box

My change from the ASUS P55-T2P4 (since I owned one previously) to the EPOX P55-VA didn't seem to matter, but I'll stick with that one now.
Re: Emulation speed issues with 86box

Sorry to piggy back here, but I also noticed that when I start up a Win98 machine in the latest PCEM, the audio is smooth. When I do the same with 86Box it sounds a bit choppy. It doesn't matter what CPU I pick. It's almost like the default buffering options are different between the two emulators. …

The card looks as clean as new as the day it was bought, but I will try cleaning it when I get home. Thanks.

OK thanks. I wasn't sure if that was a common thing.
Repairing audio cards?
Posted on 2017-07-06, 00:37
So some 18 years later, it's inevitable some of our favorite peripherals will start dying. My original Aureal SQ2500 sound card is acting weird. I already purchased a spare on eBay, but those prices just go up. About 20% of the time when I boot up, it is fine. The other 80% it's not recognized …

OK that was my concern. Thanks! It's a P2B variation that supports lower voltages, but i didn't know what to set the jumpers to on the MB.

Thank you. How do I set the jumpers on the motherboard?

Hi Gerwin. Do you know where I should be setting the jumpers on that same sandwich? I bought a MS6905 Master, Lin-Lin and Tualatin Celeron 1.4 as well for an ASUS P2B. I don't know where or which jumpers should set the voltage!

Recapping a motherboard?
Posted on 2017-06-04, 19:56
For those of us with less-than-satisfactory skills with a soldering iron, I wanted to know if any of the experts here would be willing to recap a motherboard for a fee? So far my venerable ASUS P2B board is running strong, but I know a day will come where it'll need a triple bypass and I didn't want …

Well, 10+ years later I'm remembering why I stuck with a BX board now. Thanks for the reminders. I'm sure it had to do with DDMA, SBLink, ISA-DMA and the like. It was the perfect Windows 98 machine then and still is today. I had one for sale on eBay but I think I'll keep it now.
