Re: Pentium I MMX overclocking?
Posted on 2012-02-09, 22:47
Try to get a Tillamook MMX and a board that supports it. They seem to overclock fantastically well. They're rated at 1.8v, but run quite happily at 2v, and can clock up quite high.

2012-02-09 ======== - FTP uploads are now unticked by default on the "Process FTP Uploads" screen. It's a good idea to verify each one has the correct size before hitting "Submit" - FTP uploads that remain unticked when you click "Submit" will now be deleted. This will also apply to files showing …

CoolerMaster HAF-X here. Love it. Previous case was an Antec 900, which was pretty good too, but full-length video cards limited where you could put the HDD cages. Also it was heavy as hell.

Ooh OK, Interesting! I'll install Firefox and see if I get the same bug. Could you PM me your IP so I can cross-check the access logs? Also, are you using any kind of script/plugin/addon that could be hiding the referrer when you try to download the file? Edit: Just tested with Firefox 10.0 on Mac, …

elianda, that is by design. If you want to link to the files, you need to link to the download page, not to the file itself: http://www.vogonsdrivers.com/getfile.php?fileid=242 If you click the link on that page, it works fine.

Alright, the image uploading problem is fixed. The bug was that a variable was mis-spelled in the doedit.php script, so the image file was not getting a name. Every time a file was uploaded, the name was being set to [blank].jpg and overwriting the same file. I've corrected this.

OK, something is going wrong, the filenames are not being retained when the database is updated. There are two files in there, called ".jpg" and ".png", which are being overwritten every time an image goes up. Not good! I'll check that out today, I might need some help to debug it. I'll let you …

Restoring a 286 Luggable. (Video inside!)
Posted on 2012-02-08, 21:58
I'm restoring the Toshiba 286 portable system I mentioned in the "Bought this!" thread. I've ordered a SCSI card so that I can replace the HDD, but in the meantime I thought I'd add sound. Here's how it went: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9vuPN42ePu8 I used a Vibra16S for the real OPL3, but also …

That SCSI card looks perfect, but the guy doesn't ship outside the USA. I found an Israeli seller with the same card, but I just want to check if the Boot ROM is standard on that card, or if it would be aftermarket. If it's standard, I'll go ahead and order one, if not, I'll find an alternative. …

You could, perhaps, build a wavetable header -> MIDI adaptor cable. I think it's easier to get a sound card with MIDI-out though.

Monochrome picture tubes are a lot simpler in complexity and thus a lot more interchangeable than color tubes. For one the deflection yoke can be removed from the tube without ruining convergence and purity (since there is none!) and so you don't ever need to risk your monitor chassis by putting in …

I'm wondering, was there a little more to it than "these are about the same size tubes"? I'm thinking along the lines of the electron gun itself, what guarantee is there that the pinouts, voltage, current, etc are the same from one manufacturer to the next?

I'm really digging the amber Gas Plasma display on this machine. It's very unique! Good idea with the SCSI card. The existing HDD is a 3.5" double-height disk, so there's plenty of room for whatever I end up sticking in there. DK, I don't know that a multi-IO card would work, there's no way to …

Ahh. I thought you meant that they only read at 12x-16x at the slower part of the disk but confused inner and outer (implying that it read at 24x at the outer tracks, and they marketed that speed somewhat misleadingly, since only part of the disk read that fast). I see what you're saying though, and …
Re: Bought these (retro) hardware today

Course that was an issue at the time as most drives only reached 12x-16x max at the outer reaches of the disk but were still marketed as 24x drives. Inner tracks, actually. The outer tracks move past the read head faster than the inner ones. I picked up a cool little 286 portable (not my picture): …
