Sorry about lack of replying. I've downloaded the utility disk and it works with my card. I can now run the vega.com. and it recognises my card. I'm using a 5160 and a 5153 monitor. Im having problems getting 16 colours on Legacy of the Ancients. It seems to display only 4 colours. As the 5153 …

Hi all, Does anyone have a copy of the Video 7 EGA graphics card driver disk for MSDOS? I've managed to find the Video 7 VGA disk but the .com are not really compatible with my card. Thanks, Rob

ok, Do I need to install and SDL libraries on XP? I've tried registering the sdl.dll with reg32svr but it does not work. I've placed the dosbox debugger in Windwos/system32 where the windows debug.exe is and I still get the same error about the sdl.dll.

Hi, does anyone have the compiled copy of Dosbox with the debugger enabled for MAcOS 10.14.x? I'm trying to compile but get errors. Can't seem to get it to work on Windows XP either? I get a SDL.dll error. Cheers, Rob

I've just tried it with a Dell Optiplex. Its got a DVI connector so using a DVI to VGA connector I connected it to the main INPUT 1 VGA cable on the monitor. Nothing. Does not turn on. Needs the IBMs power 🤣. This is strange. The IBM AT has an OAK VGA 87 1MB ISA card. 🙁

Very strange.... If I disconnect everything and press the power button the monitor does not turn on. No orange LED nothing. If I connect it (INPUT1) to my PII computer there is no way to turn on the monitor. PC is on and the monitor does not turn on. Even pressing the on button on the monitor. IF I …

Hi all, I'm going to buy an origina IBM 5150 (model PC 130A) PC and want to use it in Europe. It got a sticker on the PSU that says input voltage selector 110V/220V. Does this mean it can be used on in European power? Do i just have to flip the switch on the PSU? Thanks, Rob
