Another Via Apollo Pro 133T, awesome! Dunno how ECS was with it but if anything based off the P6VXA (Via Apollo Pro 133A) it would be rated at average at best and a rather stable. I just got my Tualatin P3-S 1.4GHz de-lidded and running 1575MHz at 150MHz bus, which seems to be the max bus that can …

What you could do is look what hardware/software is the last one supported by 98/ME and go for that. This is a good starting point: http://www.msfn.org/board/forum/8-windows-959898seme/ Thanks! but thats were I started with alot of updates and programs. I didn't know Cacheman 5.50 was as decent as …

Mwahahahah. I went crazy the other day and popped the cap on my Tualatin (IHS removal) and decided to run it naked with AS5! My temps dropped and amazing................wait for it..................wait for it.............0c! LOL, on longer idle I can see 35c, but still regularly hit 37~38c, even …

OK, small update. I tried looking up some more info on NMI's and still did not find anything definitive. I did find a BIOS setting called APIC (Advance Programmable Interrupt Controller) which is meant for anything after Windows 98SE (WinNT and up). I tried changing from APIC to PIC, installed the …

Is the CONFIG.SYS/AUTOEXEC.BAT stuff (i.e. SBEINIT and such) actually needed for Windows 98SE with the Live? I'm not 100% sure, but AFAIK (I think) you don't require any of the DOS stuff loading in during bootup for the Windows drivers to function properly. CT4780 (looks like a SBlive Value card) …

I've used and seen many tweakguides for OS's like 98se/ME, but as hardware got faster where there better tweaks out for that hardware? When searching alot I usually find guides for 128mb ram, 20gb HD, 500mhz type systems. I'm running a faster system and just wondered if there are more optimized …

Do you have anymore specs on the I815 board? any pics? :) I recently went through heck to find some older S370 boards with ISA. I finally stumbled across the VIA Apollo Pro 133T chipset that supported Tualatin/1.5GB SDram/ISA/ATA-100 and snagged one off ebay that had bad caps to repair. The board …

I no longer need another V5 as i've just repaired mine :happy: I think i did a fairly clean job considering i hve no experience soldering SMD components... and i used a standard 30W soldering iron with a fine tip. http://s799.photobucket.com/albums/yy271/PowerPie5000/?action=view¤t=Voodoo5. …

I wonder - is the Liveware 3.0 CD applicable to all CT SB Live! models? RogueTrip2012, what CT model is your SB Live! card? I have a model CT4760 and as far as I can tell it is a basic SBLive! with Gold connectors. Some sites say could be a X-gamer buy doubt that! I got it for free so I can't …

If windows sound is fine you should be able to open a DOS command prompt and play man games (not all work from within windows). Our recommendation for the Live! is specific to the use of SoundFonts. If you need a Soundcard for pure DOS we would recommend something else. Thats the thing, even in …

Yeah, as Mau1wurf1977 replied, you won't need the DOS drivers loaded in for W98SE. Most things run just fine in a DOS shell under that OS, and the DOS games will use the SBLive for their sound and MIDI playback using the W98SE drivers :) Used to do this all of the time with my AWE32s installed in …

Ahh, Win2k, I used it alot back in the day, great OS. It was mainly meant for business and networking. No frills but did the job great while using the NT kernel. It was my OS of choice before SP2 for XP. While it was a SMP aware OS it wasn't optimized for HyperThreading (like XP) and would loose …

A word of advice LOL IMO you are better off just buying a Creative Live! or Audigy or Audigy2 or X-Fi instead of hunting down / paying for that AWE64 memory converter + memory modules... Hmmm, your probably right, I have 3 SoundBlaster Live!'s and can't get the dos drivers working in windows 98se …

Another good resource might be my X-Fi SoundFont thread: http://www.vogons.org/viewtopic.php?t=27016 Even has some pics. It's dead easy... 1. Load SoundFont 2. Make sure the SoundFont is the default MIDI playback device 3. Launch game (Either DOSBox or DOS Window) and select General Midi Hmm, I …

Use this thread: http://www.vogons.org/viewtopic.php?t=26834 ;-) Been looking at that thread and a few others. None are helpful as they don't say any step by step on getting a soundfont to work with a game I just got a .rar file which contained alot of soundblaster drivers. I found the AWE32 …

I'm new to the who AWE64. My extent of games usually was on a SB16 ISA or a SB128 PCI back in the day through Windows 95/98SE This card came highly recommended for DOS, so I grabbed one off ebay and it is pleasantly working great. When reading Wiki there is a SimmConn expansion module available for …

Here goes my first post on my new account :) I just got my P-III-S 1.4GHz about a week ago, I use a rather open case design (Thermaltake V3 Black) with 4x 120mm fans, a socket 370 CoolerMaster HSF like 60mm and aluminum. I live in Ohio and keep my computer in the basement which is a bit cold. My …
