Re: PS/2 mice not detected by Cutemouse in Tandy 1000RL

So, I found a 90s Compaq PS/2 mouse, and plugged it in for shits&giggles. Cutemouse managed to detect it, and it works great in Deskmate!

I'll give it a try, but did you use any special command arguments for the driver?
PS/2 mice not detected by Cutemouse in Tandy 1000RL

As the topic says, I have tried using some PS/2 mice in my 1000RL, but no luck with the cutemouse driver. Any reason why this is? Unrelated, but thanks, Cloudschatze, I just found and ordered a SyQuest Shuttle parallel to SCSI adapter off eBay. 🤣

So, is there a reason why the background on a Tandy 1000 with this would be green? The device works, but I get a green background instead of black. Filename image.jpg File size 1.56 MiB Views 1771 views File comment Bad unit?

Here's a pic of the board. It looks possibly to take a CR2032, based on the circular blank next to the socket.
Tandy 1000RL Clock Battery
Posted on 2022-08-12, 18:04
Does anyone know what clock battery goes into socker U28 of this machine? I just recently acquired a working 1000RL off eBay from a local seller, and it has a socket for the clock chip (but curiously no holder for a coin cell battery). I'm not sure what an easily-obtainable part for today would be, …

Based on testing with my old Startech card about four years ago, DVI seems to not output a native 400p70 signal. I recall it being recognized as 1280x1024 at 60Hz.

PMMX-OD Jumper Settings for AST Advantage 824
Posted on 2021-07-13, 13:48
Hey, I was wondering if anyone else who owns an AST Advantage! 824 might know what the jumper settings are, for upgrading to a Pentium-MMX OverDrive 200? After seeing Phil's video, I think this machine after all the upgrades (it already has 64MB of memory, just needs its Mach64 upgraded to 2MB of …
Re: Gona's PCI and AGP video card DOS compatibility chart
Posted on 2021-07-11, 20:43
Ok, so for Pinball Illusions, mark the Mach64 (and this would probably count for any of ATI's 3D cards, since they all may most likely use the same 2D core) as incompatible in 640x480 and 800x600. Trident TGUI-9680 works perfect in all three. S3 Virge DX works in all modes, but not if my GuS PnP is …
Re: Best DOS video card?
Posted on 2021-06-24, 17:47
Hey, gona, I want to quickly add a report from myself (Voodoo3 owner) and an owner of a Voodoo5 I know. Pinball Illusions is unplayable on any Voodoo 3-5 in either SVGA mode. The graphics are scrambled and only show up at the top of the screen (both on CRT and LCD). My S3 VirgeDX, Trident 9440, …
Tandy 1000HX Replacement Drive Cage and Expansion Cover
Posted on 2021-06-16, 05:44
Does anyone know if these can be made? I have a 1000HX I got from a friend, but lacks both. As a result, I would need to rig an adapted internal PC floppy drive in a not-pretty manner for it to work with the bezel. Also, the expansion area of the internals would be exposed.

Yeah, I can attest on the value of a used Datapath. I lucked out massively, and snagged an E2S for $99.99 and free shipping.
Re: Redesign of Gona's video chip DOS compatibility matrix
Posted on 2020-10-05, 13:57
Know I'm replying to a topic from last year, but might want to include the SVGA res for Pinball Illusions. Reason I suggest that, is to test how cards handle non-VESA SVGA modes. I can attest that from my personal usage (and getting tests from friends with other ones in this group), that none of the …
Re: Voodoo 3 3000 - is 15kHz RGB possible?
Posted on 2020-08-02, 06:02
For DOS, I know there was bith VGA15, and another utility specifically for certain cards like the Voodoo3. It wouldn't run at 70Hz, but it did output the 15.75KHz HScan rate desired. The only issue is, games that used the Tweaked ModeX (in-game for Epic Pinball, Jazz Jackrabbit, and Extreme Pinball …
Re: VGA Capture Thread
Posted on 2018-03-29, 23:06
I believe earlier in the thread, someone posted a TSR called VGA240 that could be used. It converts the 70Hz 320x200 modes into a 60Hz 240p set. I understand how you feel, as the MicomSoft and StarTech devices do not seem to accept the 70Hz signal for some reason. I believe someone said that a few …
Pinball Illusions SVGA on Voodoo3, unplayably-scrambled screen.

So, as the topic states, I get an unplayably-scrambled screen when trying to play Pinball Illusions in either SVGA mode on my Voodoo3. Any other graphics card I have, it will display the modes just fine. I'm just curious if any other Voodoo3 owners have the same issue, as well as any Rush, Banshee, …

Would anyone know the parameters for custom resolutions one could dial in for CGA and such? I am contemplating connecting my Commodore 128 in 80col mode through my Extron RGB202 Plus (which can convert the RGBI signal into analog rgb for output). I just feel if I can get my VGA2USB to work with it, …
