Re: hdd replacment - sd card, cf card or scsi

Given Win95 originally didn't support FAT32 (and the fact that FAT32 has its own types), it should be obvious what a "Win95 partition" refers to. Given SIV is a Windows utility it should and does use the Windows header files. It should be obvious these are what should be checked rather than none …

Do you make videos, blog, review about retro hardware? What about utility developers? I develop SIV and would be interested in getting a 486 motherboard, 3Dfx GPUs and any other things I don't already have so I can use them to validate SIV or to extend what SIV supports . For me it would be about a …

There must be some slight difference between different partitioning/formatting tools that the FC1307A either likes or does not like . Offset from beginning of disk may be one of them or not . FAT16 has several possible partition table IDs: 04: FAT16, < 32MB 06: FAT16, >= 32MB 0E: FAT16, >= 32MB, …

make sure that the first partition on the card is FAT32 or NTFS, otherwise you will almost certainly have issues. That first partition does not need to be big or usable by DOS,or even set to active . If the first partition is FAT12 or FAT16, all the FC1307 based adapters that I have tested will see …

It reports "Unzulässige Funktion" which I would translate into "illegal operation". https://www.vogons.org/download/file.php?id=96867 Thank you for checking it out, this is what I was expecting and in the header file Status 1 is as below. I feel I should leave the code there so the IRDA port is at …

Yes it shows up between the "Net" devices as "Infrared-5". Ah, I had not spotted the class was Infrared . I could use that to detect it, but given it's not GUID_DEVINTERFACE_IRPORT I expect it won't support IOCTL_IR_GET_DEV_CAPS so even if I used the class being Infrared then the IOCTL_IR_GET_DEV_ …

The SATA 600 SSD should negotiate down to SATA 150, I just checked and my Gigabyte 8IPE775P has a Samsung SSD 840 that does. Does your SSD support Generation 1 (is G1 checked)?

From SIV 5.54 Beta-02 SIV should report all three fans on EVGA RTX 3080 + 3090 + all FTW3 GPUs, but I have only tested this on my EVGA RTX 3080 XC3 Ultra. If you have an EVGA RTX 3080, 3090 or FTW3 GPU please will you check if SIV reports all three fans and post the Menu->Machine->GPU Info panel. If …

Nope, the port doesn't show up in the interfaces menu I know why and don't think there is much I can do about this. It's using the National 6.0.6001.18000 driver which looks like it fails to expose the GUID_DEVINTERFACE_IRPORT interface. Looking at Menu->System->DOS Devices I found: ACPI#IBM0071#4& …

Unfortunately "IR Ports" doesn't show up in that menu, although the port itself is working fine and shows up in the windows device manager. Just used it a few weeks ago to sync an old Palm device. I'm running SIV on Windows 10 N (32-Bits) on an old Thinkpad X60s. I would expect it to show up on W10 …

Is there a section for IrDA somewhere in SIV Thank you for your post. SIV checks for GUID_DEVINTERFACE_IRPORT devices and it it finds any then there should be Menu->System->ACPI + PnP->IR Ports , is it there please? For 5.54 Beta-02 I will change the name to ->IRDA Ports and will add Menu->Network …
