You will have no flawless 320x200 on a random LCD TV. This video mode (13h) is a 4:3 mode with non-square pixels. If you want flawless 320x200 LCD, you need some 4:3 monitor. I have the Dell 2007FP , 20" 1600x1200 IPS monitor with VGA, DVI, S-Video and composite video inputs. It displays 320x200 …
Re: Odd subject - Is it possible for long video\sound card's pcb to warp over time?
Posted on 2014-02-22, 15:13
I have a 8 bit ISA MediaVision Pro AudioSpectrum card (like 3/4 of full length), it's bent that way. Long but not long enough to reach the full-length ISA support slits 🙁 I suppose that 16-bit ISA cards are less prone to that.

I saw something on television recently about children who have memories of past lives. The creepiest one was a kid who remembers being a Russian officer during World War 2. The producers of the television show did some research and found out that, yes, there was an officer in the Russian army at …
Can't install a Turtle Beach Multisound Classic card

I've received the card today and tried to install it but to no avail. P233MMX-based Win98SE system: the drivers are installed but upon Windows startup I've got 'Multisound hardware is not responding'. 486 DX2-50 Win 3.11 system: the drivers are installed, but any TB application says that drivers are …

It puzzles me how one game developing companies made it through '90s and live till now, while others kissed the oblivion despite producing quality games back then (New World Computing being an example). Maybe I should find this 'Masters of Doom' and read it, even if I have a hard time reading …

There are no ghosts and dead people are gone forever. On the other hand, there is such thing as intuition and it works sometimes. However, intuition might not be the case here. What if that girl says 'you have a dead sister' to everyone, and with you she just hit the spot?

What if something is wrong with your IRQ and DMA settings? Are you sure the card IRQ, DRQ and DACK jumpers are set the right way?

AWE64 Gold cards are easy to find at $30-40. If you want the memory upgrade though, it's very rare and can go up to $200. SCC-1 market price seems to be about $150-300 depending on condition, model and accessories. SW60XG is about $100 for the bare card.

Right, FB-01s are very frequent. They have built-in PSU, thus one should consider FB-01U for 110V and FB-01G for 220-240V. They usually sell about €30 at ebay.de; however, mint condition ones could go up to €70.

NIB MU80 , $150 + $40-50 worldwide shipping from South Korea. That man also sold NIB SC-55 for about $150 too (or was it SC-88? I forgot and it is already gone from sold items). Thus, higher than that, it's probably a greedy seller. There is one in Moscow that wants $300 for a bare used MU80, and $ …

Didn't realize I was so (in)famous. :cool: You are. It's all but impossible to stumble upon something (be it a rare soundcard or some feature) and not realize subsequently that it has already been described by you or Great Hierophant . Most recent case: in that Compute magazine I noticed a strange …
PX player needs assistance with hardware testing

This hardware drivers still have to be tested: Adlib Gold (ADLIBG.ADV) Omni Labs Audio Master / ASC Media Master (MMSYNTH.ADV) Roland MT-32 connected …

Nice pic! Taken from the Compute article, right? Absolutely. Just had to edit it to get rid of black frames. you'll be better off using your local library to get the contents of that article. I doubt the article says more than the Compute article, honestly. I'm in Russia, do you really believe some …

You need to level up your Google skills, like me :) Well, I have already found out what ASC MediaMaster is, just thought there is no interest among community. However, your Google skills seemingly supercede mine as I haven't found most of that Usenet stuff and the CV. It is a 16 bit "wavetable" …
