Re: NTVDM on windows 10 x64

Posted on 2020-06-16, 21:45

Really cool project! :) Immediately when I heard about the issue with the vga-calls my brain started grinding its gears a bit on how to solve that... What do you think about these snippets?

Problems with installing MidiMapper

Posted on 2019-09-28, 16:52

It's well known that Windows 10 lacks a way to change the default midi-device - meaning that a lot of nice midi-things are simply all-out broken. For a while I've been using Coolsoft Midi-Mapper, to allow me to control my midi-devices, but something has gone wrong... Here's my original post over at …

Re: Winevdm

How does WineVDM hold up when compared to Boxed Wine? I was really excited for bxw but after finally testing it last night, I was sorely disappointed in its userfriendliness. Is WineVDM easier to use? Windows shell and context-menu integration would be the dream! Just rightclick and chose "run with …

Re: 38-year-span (PC) and 13-year-span (Mac) Retro Xeon Rig (built with compatible hardware *only*, no emulation)

IT'S VACATION-TIME!! : D Which means, if the missus lets you, this is the moment for fun, games and hobbies. Have you had any opportunity to test the IGP any more, recently? I knew I had forgotten something! Thanks for the reminder, I am actually home all week so I should have the testing done …

Re: Ultimate multiboot - Old+New (DOS+W98,Xp,7,10+Linux,MacOS,Android-x86) on newest HW research - compatibility matrix

I finally tested GA-P75-D3P and with Yamaha 724 its working so B75 chipset and with high probability other its derivatives (Q75 and Q77) are Dos sound capable.. same as X6X which already made Rayer working. Good going dude - keep it up, my man! = ) The Quadro 1300 finally arrived, sadly, it was …

Just a quick update - normal life took over for the last week, so I don't have any compatibility results to share at the moment. :( I do plan to do the testing this weekend though, hopefully should have it up by Saturday evening. ;) I'm guessing you've had your hands full for a while? Do you think …

Hey, Ruthan, I've ordered a lot of 3 Quadro 1300 (geforce FX 5900, but PCI-E!) - it's currently stuck somewhere - the german guy I bought them from might be trying to rip me off - hopefully eBay will help out. But anyways, if it works out, and it's actually a lot of 3 cards, would you be interested …

Re: PCIE GPU for Win98SE ?

Posted on 2019-06-02, 08:38

Those specs are correct for the Quadro but there isn't an exact matching Geforce (also, I've heard on these forums that the Win98 drivers don't play as nice with the Quadros): HMM! That is rather worrying to hear... do you have any links to discussions about them? Would be rather interesting to …

Re: PCIE GPU for Win98SE ?

Specs differences: (NV38) Geforce PCX 5950 256MB GPU - 475Mhz RAM - 450Mhz Geforce FX 5950 Ultra 256MB GPU - 475Mhz RAM - 475Mhz Quadro FX 1300 - looks like it might be overclockable to around 454/377 so a bit faster than the 5900XT at stock speeds. 128MB GPU - 350Mhz RAM - 275Mhz (End NV38) (NV35) …

Re: PCIE GPU for Win98SE ?

Posted on 2019-05-31, 19:27

There are actually PCI-e versions of the 5000-series gpu's. : o They have the name of PCX in front of them, so, like, PCX 5900 - they're rare and hard to find, but with one of those, you'll have the perfect balance between compatibility and performance. I also believe they are known under the names …

Tremendous work, Snowman. = ) I want to give this a deeper look, but occupational burnout is holding me back. Still, I've spent the evening trying to get this pack together: May I ask you a favour? Could you try out the demo/shareware versions of these games with the Intel GMA x4500, and see if it …

I have a question here... I have a Asus M3A78-CM rev 1.01G motherboard in my possession, it's an AMD board, it features an SB700 southbridge chip - just to make sure, I had a look at the specs, and unless I've misunderstood it, this Southbridge has very complex DMA support, with Midi and Adlib …

Re: Help me decide on a ISA soundcard!

Posted on 2019-05-05, 15:44

You are going to struggle getting things to work properly with 8-gig of RAM in your computer. Windows 98 gets wonky when it sees more than 512meg RAM. ISA sound cards may not work properly, as the chipset doesn't properly support ISA DMA signalling. (I am sure there are people with actual …
