HOWEVER, fdisk and format that come standard with win 98 are bugged and have problems above 64GB. Fdisk is the more critical one as it has problems creating partitions on drives above 64GB, either find a patched fdisk, or partition it with another OS. Format only has a display bug and shows a …

I just want to use a 120GB SSD but is there generally a way to test it just out of curiosity. Like a program to write the drive full?

Since in my really small office the Gaming computer has only DP, HDMI and DVI I got for this scenario for my DOS box a GeForce3Ti which has DVI and VGA out. As a 3DFX lover I still would like to keep a Voodoo3 inside the box :) just in case I really need it and would set up in that case temporary an …

I have tested now via Win2000 setup and loaded the controller driver via floppy and the setup sees the correct size of the drive. So that seems to work.

It is actually not even 32gb. Fdisk shows me only 23604MB without any partition on the drive. I thought the bios from the controller manage in this case the size (which is correct shown on boot). The mainboard should not limit the drive here or? @chinny22 the boot DOM has 16GB, 2GB FAT16 for DOS and …

Hmm I tested now a bit around and installed Wing Commander 4 + Win9x patch. The DOS version runs flawless. The Win9x exe makes some trouble. The sound in the video is cracked. So I thought maybe slow CPU issue and I switched to a K6-2 500 and upgraded the memory at the same time to 128MB. Same issue …

Thanks everyone for your opinions. I will go for this box (in my signature) finally with Win98. Runs so far with 32MB pretty fast and not even the light version. But I am building a second 486 box beside and there it will be DOS6.22 and maybe win95 serve 😀
