Love threads like this. Is there a 2000/2001 thread somewhere as well?

I have an Asus V8420/128M and an MSI G4Ti4200-TD64. I'll need a copy of nvflash but I can dump the roms from them if they'll help Those are NV25 cards as far I can see. I am looking for NV28 roms (AGP8x). So unfortunately can't use them. Hello, http://web.archive.org/web/*/https://whitebunny.net/* …
Re: What?? Both VLB and PCI slots on a 486 mobo?
Posted on 2023-09-30, 07:05
The problem with VLB controllers is the drivers only support hard drives up to 420mb. I think if you use a CF card and don’t load the VLB Drivers you might be able to get around this limitation I'm using a VLB controller on 486 with a CF card. It has multiple 2Gb partitions. With or without drivers …

Nice improvements. Especially the WindowsUpdateRestored redirect. Small question: is there also a WebOne.0.16.0.win-x86.full.zip for Linux (not deb or rpm based) planned? It will run barebones on my Asustor after installing dotnet but misses the convert executable for example. Or do you know when …

Tried various versions from 5.163.0 to 5.780, but none seemed to sit well with these particular cards for various reasons...GPU-Z worked first time. So, grab em while you can :) Downloaded and burned. Seems to work so far but need to do some more testing. Thanks! Here it is. AOpen GF Ti4200 4.25.00 …

Thanks all! Very useful information. Will go with the NVIDIA GeForce 2 GTS for now.
ATI Radeon 9600 XT vs NVIDIA GeForce 2 GTS for Windows 98SE
Posted on 2023-09-20, 08:16
I thought it was an easy task to choose a video card for my 1 Ghz Pentium III Windows 98SE pc. But I found the 3DMark results a bit inconclusive: ATI Radeon 9600 XT 99:6370 01:5520 NVIDIA GeForce 2 GTS 99:6587 01:3028 The older GTS is unexpectedly a bit faster with 3DMark 99. And as expected the XT …

Re: What retro activity did you get up to today?

Updated the BIOS on my T40 to 3.23 then replaced the old 1.5GHz with a Dothan 1.7GHz. Replaced the BIOS battery and added a mini-PCI wireless card (BCM943224). Unfortunately, it's whitelisted so will have to dig up after a workaround. Any suggestions, much appreciated. Search for no-1802.com. …

Thanks for all the advice, I'll just go with Norton Utilities v6.0 I think, as that seems to be contemporary with MS-DOS 5.0 and also happens to be what I remember using with my 486 at the time.. And it also seems to support 8086/88 as well :) Great choice. I use an older version as it's a lot …

Using Intellipoint 3.2 myself on Windows 95 and up (which includes a newer msmouse.vxd) . You say something about lower resources with Intellipoint 2.2c. What exactly did you measure in CPU and/or memory resources compared to other versions?

It will create a mp3 or wav file but it only contains a header nothing more. Using Tapedeck version 3.25 at the moment as that is …

Also have a T5710 but don't have the issues you mention. But anyways you can't go wrong with the usual recommendations like these 2: Advance Logic ALS4000 (PCI) ESS ES1938S Solo-1 (PCI) Have them both and they work great. Don't have a preference so would buy the cheapest one you can find. Looked …
