In the interest of driving this thread even further off-topic (sorry Buckeye), what are you looking for? Check this link: http://simhq.com/forum/ubbthreads.php/topics/3648350/re-rowans-mig-alley-latest-patch#Post3648350 In that post, Thingol mentions a "BDG Keyboard Manager". The link is long dead …

Before anybody gets their panties all twisted up: The WW2 Fighters Base Mods CD contains no commercial or copyrighted content. It is all fan-created mods for WW2 Fighters. It is not illegal to share it. The creators of the disc encouraged users to share it. At one time, there were download links on …

OK, I've located my copy of the Base Mods CD. However, it looks like PogoPlug went tits-up in November of last year without any notification or warnings. Nice. So, without PogoPlug I no longer have any free cloud storage. I checked my disc and it has Rammjager's P51D V1 mod on it. That's OK though, …

I recently upgraded my old IBM ThinkPad T60 laptop's CPU and did four 3DMark2001SE before-and-after performance benchmarks to see what would happen. 2x2Gb Elpida PC2 6400, DDR2 666 - 3GB usable - Dual Channel Mode 5-5-5-15-21 ATI Mobility Radeon X1400 Graphics 128Mb RAM Windows 7 Pro SP1 x86 32-bit …

Re: I'm Looking for a List of Software That Can Make a Full Disk Backup of Windows 98 SE and XP that Runs on Modern OSes

KT7AGuy, when I tried using Clonezilla to clone my P3's system's hard drive (has Win98SE on it) to an external hard drive, whenever it was done, and I made it check to see if it was "restorable" (the image of the drive, that is), it said it wasn't, and as a result of running that action, it screwed …

I usually prefer Ghost v6.x or v7.x for DOS and Win9x. Ghost v8.x for Win2K & WinXP is very good. Ghost v11.x for WinVista and Win7 is also very good. I was recently tasked with preserving a client's ancient Ubuntu Linux system and I came across a better way of doing things. Many users here on …

Re: Which Voodoo card to buy ?

Posted on 2018-06-05, 23:21

Banshee is a cut-down version of Voodoo2. It's more of a VGA'd souped up version of the original Voodoo Graphics, done right... Most of V2's additional registers are not found in the Banshee or the rest of the Voodoo lineup. Interesting. I didn't know this. Will a Banshee work with static-link DOS …

Re: ATI Radeon 9000 on Win98. Best driver version?

Posted on 2018-06-03, 06:40

Win9x v45.23 NVIDIA drivers work with both FX 5900 Ultra and Quadro FX 3000 cards. They can also be made to work with 5950 Ultra cards by adding/changing hardware IDs. Thanks for the info regarding R200 vs R300 9xxx series cards. I was ignorant of that. I had assumed that the OP meant he was using a …

Re: ATI Radeon 9000 on Win98. Best driver version?

I'm sure this isn't what you want to hear, but here I go anyway: In my experience, there isn't a "best" Radeon R300 driver for Win9x. There isn't even a good one. They're all mediocre. The Omega drivers might be an improvement, but I found those to be only slightly less flaky than the official …

I finished Halo tonight. It's not a bad game at all. I really enjoyed many parts of it. Highlights - Driving the tank. - Driving either model of the Covenant floating scooters. - Large, exciting, wide-open epic battles on huge maps. - The ending was truly exciting. - Sergeant Johnson - The shotgun …

Falconsoft, tgod, I finally got around to testing Deus Ex again. You were both correct on this matter, so I wanted to acknowledge you and thank you for your comments. DD/DTS onboard decoding settings had no effect whatsoever. What did have an effect was disabling "Hardware 3D Support" in the Deus Ex …

There should be an option in the driver settings for enabling/disabling SLI mode. Even running on a single V2, EAW in GLIDE mode may be just as smooth as D3D mode on your GF3, but you're limited to 800x600 resolution. Beyond 1024x768, fonts become difficult to read. I recommend the FastVoodoo2 …

buckeye, European Air War is happiest on a Win9x system. It and Red Baron 3D are the primary reasons I keep my old Win98SE systems going. While you can get it to run under XP with unofficial patches, nothing is guaranteed. Also, it uses 8-bit palletized textures and fog table, so you don't want to …
