Looks like Trident 9685 shouldn't have scrolling problems, but remember that not all LCD run in sync when they got 70Hz refresh rate. https://gona.mactar.hu/DOS_TESTS/

Try using the Matrox Mystique as the primary card. In Windows XP you should install the default drivers for it and just disable the monitor on the Mystique when you also got the X1950 drivers installed. I'm using this method on VMware ESXi when I pass an AMD PCIe graphic card to a Windows XP/7 guest …

Wouldnt a riser card work a bit better than a cable, since a cable could have higher chances of shorting the board? Here's a riser card I fuond on ebay. (http://www.ebay.com/itm/Rightward-Left-Angle-32Bit-32Bit-1U-PCI-Riser-Expansion-Card-Adapter-Single-Slot-/331518112226?hash=item4d3004f1e2:g: …

That, and a microphone jack next to it. It probably has some cheap onboard AC'97 audio or something. Which you probably can't get going under FreeDOS. If it's one of these, it indeed lists audio specs: http://www.ebay.com/itm/HP-Compaq-t5000-t5520-64MB-Flash-128MB-DDR-SDRAM-Thin-Client-Terminals-/ …

Darn it I could pull one over you all LoL I hate that card. Yes you can do that with 7000 series card but it not an official stock driver and Win9x didn't support PCIe at the time just like with sata. Yes, you can use a stock driver, but then you have to select card manually when installing. SATA …

Nope that was GeForce 4 Ti the Radeon 9700 Pro was 5 months later. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ATi_Radeon_R300_Series https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/GeForce_4_series Was that a GTX 7800 GS an AGP?

For example, Geforce 6800 is last series supported in Windows 98, Radeon HD 3850/4670 are last AGP cards. But I don't know anything else since I am into sound cards, not video ones. Now I'm eager to know. I got the 7800 GTX working under Windows 98SE, just select GeForce 6800 something when …

I guess you had a look at bristlehog's thread . I don't know what game WWF4 is, but do you got sound FX in the game itself or only in the setup program? In my experience some games, like Warcraft II which also use Miles, you get sound FX in the setup program but not in the game itself with certain …

Added some results for one of my rigs at the "Emulators" and "Overclocked" pages. The results for 3DBENCH2 and PCPBench FPS are almost the same between DOSEMU, NTVDM and DOS 7.1.

Have you tried to clean the PCI connector of your card? I have experienced that PCI id's sometimes get corrupted because of bad contact.
