Package looked perfectly fine. Here is a photo of the pins. The card works perfectly though so no worries. well it was bound to happen after all those cards made LOL sorry for that but yeah, it's not a serious damage, straighten them again and it will be like nothing ever happened :) Yeah no …

Got my Orpheus. I gotta say it’s sweet and works perfectly. Using Orphinit. Waveblaster header pins were a little bent but was able to fix them. Thanks for the device.!

OK, so connected both sound cards independently to the receiver and both work perfectly. Quite happy with the P3 now. Just waiting to get a Molex 4-pin to SATA power adapter for the SSD. And will see if I’ll replace the V3 with thr GF Ti 4400 at some point. Maybe not. Machine working well in Win98 …

OK, for some reason removing the SB Live card fixed the issue. And now it works with both cards. Should I be able to connect the SB Live from the line out to the Orpheus Line in? So I wouldn’t have to switch the Line out cable between each sound card every single time I switch between DOS and …

So a few problems. Installed the Orpheus, replaced Voodoo 3 2000 with 3000, replaced The IDE to CF with another one with a front bay, and also moved the NIC to another PCI slot. Now Win 98 freezes when trying to load at the point when you see the Windows 98 loading screen. Will try removing each …

OK, I will stick with the Pentium MMX for now. It seems to run all games quite well. Also bought the S3 Trio 64V+. Another question though regarding the P3. In order to power the SSD: should I get a molex 4-pin to SATA power adapter or just get a brand new PSU with modern connectors?

On the subject of the 80's, I'd go Tandy 1000, that's what I have and I love it. Even a Tandy 1000A (which there seems to be plenty of) seems to be a good choice for 80's stuff. You may even be able to still find one much cheaper than a NuXT and it really does not take much even to make the pokey …

Speed depends on what games you want to play. Late dos will appreciate the extra speed but may break compatibility, but then a patch may exist like the "pascal 200 mhz patch" Best way is to simply to start playing games and work out if you need to change anything. Video cards for pure dos rigs I …

Hey, are you still selling these? Thanks! Yes, I do. I wanted to update this thread, but have had nothing to report (I don't want to "bump" on Vogons without a cause). I'll have some proper news in a week or so. OK, I sent you an e-mail on the 12th asking about them. I can resend if you didn’t …

So I purchased an ASUS VX97 for the DOS machine. The purpose of this machine is maximum compatibility with DOS games. So slowing down is more inportant than being fast. So a few questions: Should I stick with PMMX 200mhz or K6-2E+? What about a 2D card for maximum DOS compatibility? I only have AGP …
