Solved: I was using old IDE cable. You know the cables with all the holes and without that middle pin filled. I dont really know the differences in IDE cables it seems.

Rgart, I think you should apply at your local detectives office. I don't appreciate it, but I have to respect the amount of time and effort you put forth to dig me up. Hehe How did I get blamed for this? :-P Amazing hardware Artex, i wonder what kind of a build will you make :) I've scrapped 9x …

That is some really impressive hardware Artex. Good to see you didnt pay ebay prices for it. But did he really avoid ebay prices? Here is the LAPC-I auction that ended at $550 : http://www.ebay.com/itm/Roland-LAPC-I-MIDI-Card-with-MCB-1-Connector-PC-Music-Gaming-MT-32-CM-32L-LAPC-1-/190847548452? …

That IS a really nice card for a 486. I wonder how it stands up against a Matrox Mystique or Millenium.

haha I noticed the lifetime warranty on the RAM and thought that was humerus. I use local auction sites and sites where I can put ads advising Im looking for old hardware people want to get rid of. Theres still plenty of people out there hoarding old hardware. I had to drive 35km to pick it up and …

I assume the physx card requires win xp and a pentium 3 or more? What video card would that physx card accompany? I think the guy mentioned that gigabyte video card had one of the fans not working..super glue was mentioned. Ill test it in the next few days.

Hello. I picked up this yesterday. I have not had a chance to catalog or test. A lot more than my last haul thread but this time its clear this stuff has not been looked after: modded, overclocked, rain damage, rust, cigarette ash. Last time the old fella I picked up from had really looked after his …

Is it an isa/vlb based 486 or pci? I would use windows 95c and probably test a few different directx versions but starcraft and diablo are screaming pentium 166 or 200.

True... Interesting that you had issues with Sierra games. Was that maybe on a fast PC? Because I have not run into a single game from Sierra that doesn't run on any of my Creative cards. Using a crystal sound card for retro gaming is a constant battle. I only had issues with sierra games when I am …
