Update: I've got tired of trying to make it work in the P233mmx system, so pulled out my brand new MSI 6167 (Slot A) with Athlon K7 750, went with Windows 98SE this time and GUS Works like a charm. Problem resolved. If anyone ever tries to pair GUS PnP with P5I430VX-250DM EXPLORER II (SPEED EASY) …

Last time I bought something from China a little over half a year back, it got here in under a week. Then again, I'm in Canada and I've noticed that shipping from China is typically faster and cheaper than from the USA for whatever reason. In fact, even shipping from Europe tends to be faster, but …

I'm surprised this syntax works. DEVICE and DEVICEHIGH expect a loadable file as the argument. It should read: DEVICEHIGH=C:\DEV\SLCD.SYS /D:SONY_000 /B:340 /M:P /V /C Using a full path instead of just \DEV\SLCD.SYS is not always necessary, but it is less ambiguous and the traditional "correct" way …

I've included a sample preamble for your CONFIG.SYS file. The arguments for FILES, STACKS, BUFFERS, and EMM386 may be slightly different, but all lines should be there. You can then install subsequent drivers into the HMA with the DEVICEHIGH in CONFIG.SYS (like DEVICEHIGH C\DRIVERS\CD\TOSHCD.SYS …

Where do you get 1.74D drivers? I try to find them without luck... My second question would be if anybody knows how to set Gravis USM 2.1 to PIO mode based on these jumpers settings: Thanks for help.
