Oh, well, getting Samba shares mounted from Time Capsule to Windows 98 is another level man :D Good luck! You were saying? LOL!! I can’t believe I did it Thanks for your simple yet very effective tip!! I have been trying to do that for months, had no idea of what was the roadblock, and actually it …

Very good post. The only downside is that this requires the Win98 user to have the same username used for the SMB share. For example, my Win98 user is "Bruno Castello", but does not match "bruno" for the SMB share. Therefore I need to create a new user. I'd rather be able to change my username but …

A while ago I had to mount a Samba share on my Windows 98 systems and found that it doesn't really work out of the box. After spending some time to understand the problem (and possible solutions) I decided that the best thing was to secure Windows 98 by enabling NTLM 2 and to do so I had to put …

You can try to lower the RAM speed. I have a X850XT PE which does not work anymore at "PE" RAM frequency but it's perfect with 30MHz less

Afaik the V5500 doesn't support sideband addressing, which the V4500 does. Does it support sideband addressing when run in single chip mode? that's a good point, in fact the Voodoo4 has also AGP4x and Voodoo5 AGP 2x, so for completeness, since I haven't done any test myself and can not find valid …

Yes, since the 5500 is basically a 4500 SLI and since there is no unified memory access on the 5500 for the VSA100 chips, so each chip has access only to 32MB of RAM and disabling one of them disables also the associated RAM

Uhm that's interesting but not sure about the feasibility and how exactly is supposed to work What I plan to do, as a follow up, is to use a GeForce4 MX460 lowered to GeForce2 MX400 frequencies and then increase the RAM speed until it reaches the GPU fill rate limit. Hopefully 7.2GB/s will be enough …

Of all the GPUs I have, this is only decent one, it was either this one or a bunch of Geforce2/4 MX, possibly a Geforce FX 5200 somewhere. I'm mostly aiming for high FPS, and if I'm lucky enough to find a Voodoo 3 PCI I will gladly add it to the system. I'm guessing it will work OK with the AGP …

The 6200 is out of place here, but if it's your only option I guess will do the job, somehow. In fact I'm curious what it can do compared to a GeForce 256DDR or GeForce 2 GTS with half of the ROPs, almost double the core frequency and less memory bandwidth If you can, post 3DMark 2000/2001 and some …
