I have found 3 BIOS files but the tags don't match, even if it is the same Release as the "Old BIOS". Should I dare to update?

I did not have manual, but found out this motherboard is the same as one Amptron one. So to change FSB one needs to unplug JP11 A jumper. Source: https://web.archive.org/web/20080313102206/http://www.amptron.com/html/m754+.html Hello I own a PC Chips M754LMR+ V3 board, drivers can be found here: …

I uploaded some VillageTronic VTBook 3D content to YouTube. Half-Life 2: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wPdUs1cJU_c Mortyr: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1lpmeI3otM0 Quake 3 Arena: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3YDONuJXfV8 For some reason I only get 274 Marks in 3DMark 2001SE on default …

Well, it certainly doesn't work with Roland SC-55 or MT-32. No matter what soundcard you use. (we have two of this bad cable)

Merry Christmas guys! I am back with a status report. Long story short, it was the cable... Here is a flickr album: https://www.flickr.com/photos/quailland/albums/72157688674909422 I bought another cable, which looks like this: https://c1.staticflickr.com/5/4643/39261429971_aa91a1c2dd_b.jpg Notice …

No, this is about 20 years old. I bought it second hand locally, but the owner never used it. I don't like the design to be honest, the cable is in the way on ISA cards, it is only okay with PCI ones...

We tried Win98SE, WinME and FreeDOS (with softMPU too). AMD K6-2 350MHz+192MB RAM, nVidia Vanta 16MB. Pentium II Celeron 400MHz 256MB RAM and S3 Savage4 32MB. Note that these are not my DOSgaming computers, that one does not turn on anymore, only fans spin... We both have this cable, can it be …

Yeah, I have seen that this is a common way and should just work out of the box. I have the exact same model of gameport cable as the one, who helped me, so we couldn't test different cable models (we tested his cable though). I was thinking about getting the serial cable, it was one of the main …

Well, the guy who helped me couldn't make Gameport MIDI work either. Not in his entire retro gaming history. But he has an original MPU-401 and a USB MIDI adapter. SC-55 worked fine with both of them. I already ordered an USB MIDI, about MPU-401 or trying with softMPU, I don't know yet. Has gameport …

Front port has been teste ofc. I no longer plan or have time to investigate without a reference device. Hopefully this weekend I will know what's the root of the issue.

It has been resetted and initialised before testing. I will take it to an MT-32 owner this weekend, and we will test.

Hmm, thanks for the reply, strange stuff. I have tried out playing a .mid in Windows Media Player and I could measure the output with a multimeter on the gameport. (on the 5-PIN DIN to be more specific). I can also measure signal when I play Duke3D in a Win98SE or WinME DOS box. I believe my card …

Sadly I don't have any of these, SC-55 would be my first one. I will try to ask for help locally. I actually went cheap on the gameport MIDI cable and picked one locally for about 3 EUR from a musician who bought it back in the days and never used it. It might be wrong, though when I measured the …

Yes yes, it is on MIDI, though I have tried all positions now...

The demo songs work correctly. I am using MPU-401 emulation and have tried port 330 and 300 too. As I measured with a multimeter the MIDI signal goes out on the gameport cable. Either I am missing some detail or there is some hardware defect here...

I did some measures and something does come out from the MIDI port of the computer through the cable, which behaves as a signal and only appears if the output is the MIDI port and I play something. So the cable is not confirmedly good, but not totally wrong either. I dug up my Win98SE machine with …

Hello! I recently purchased and received a Roland SC-55 MKII. I don't really have time for it right now, but I should test if it works. To increase the issues, my DOS gaming rig doesn't want to turn on and I don't have time for trobuleshooting either. The task is to make SC-55 work under Windows …
