Thanks! I hope this will benefit others as well.

Can confirm it works now and I'm grateful for all the help! Looks like there hasn't been any damages, so the circuit breaker saved me! =)

In the 'off' position, no leg should be connected to any other leg. In the 'on' position, one leg should be connected to one other leg. So there should be two pairs of legs that are connected in the 'on' position. The way you should connect the switch is that you connect the incoming mains voltage …

It is possible that the contacts are fused together, or that the contacts have been burnt away. It would be best to use a multimeter to measure which contacts are connected when you pull the switch, before you hook it up to mains. Then you can also verify that is it still working. I have a …

Black and white to pins 2 an5, brown and blue to pins 3 and 6. The way you connected it shorted the mains when switching on. The question remains is whether the switch has been damaged. Thanks for the answer! Black for pin 2 White for pin 5 Brown for pin 3 Blue for pin 6 The rocker power switch was …

Hi! I know the subject has been brought up before, but the topics I have read has not made be any wiser than before, so here goes! I have a full tower AT 486 computer with the red rocker switch. I have replaced the AT power supply with a new old stock AT power supply, AE, model SPA-4250 I have the …

Is this Windows 95? DOS? If it's DOS, what are you using as a mouse driver? I usually use the ctmouse driver loaded in the autoexec.bat but your mouse may need a different driver. You say you have the hard drive and floppy working, so those jumpers are set correctly. According to your stason.org …

Hi! I have an multi I/O card PT-604a. I'm having trouble getting the serial mouse to work with it. I have the Microsoft Serial Mouse 2.1a plugged into the serial port of the card, but it cannot recognize or won't find the mouse at all. I'm not sure of the motherboard manufacturer, but there is an …

I ditched the sound card, didn't get it fixed. Ended up with an Opti 82C929A, now everything works great! 😎

Update: Luckily for me, Philscomputerlab uploaded a video about the CT3670 at the end of last year. I've adjusted my settings in the Mixerset to correspond to the settings in his review, but I've also adjusted the output gain on both channels to +2. Now I get strong decent sound and fx on most of …

Thanks all for contributing! I decided to do a format and a clean MS-DOS install just to be sure that I've had erased all the settings and values of the old sound card (CT2230). I downloaded the CTCMBBS.EXE from Creative Labs wesite and the SBDIAGNOSE.EXE, instead of using the Sound Blaster AWE32 …

What does your autoexec.bat look like? You should have these lines in addition to the SET BLASTER statement. C:\sb16\diagnose /s (if this isn't there, it makes total sense why it isn't working until you run diagnose) C:\sb16\aweutil /s c:\sb16\mixerset /p /q My autoexec.bat does look like this and …

but when I connect the cable to the "SPK out", You should generally avoid using speaker out — its output is amplified which can probably cause some of the noises you're hearing. Just plug your speakers into Line out, and you should get better quality. Also make sure that other components aren't …

Hi! First time posting here. I have taken my old 80486DX out of the closet and installed the Sound Blaster CT-3670, which I thought would be a great replacement because the original CT-2230 had developed a problem related to the music, which was waaay to low and the sound effects were okay. I …
