Re: What are differences among the contain of the ROMs of the two versions of MT-32 (original and Blue Ridge) and the CM

The MT-32 has two versions. Except for rare synths where Roland replaced the motherboard, all new MT-32s have a TRS headphone jack in addition to the line outputs. The new version is a little quieter and doesn't have the same buffer problems as the old. Some games were composed for the old version …

Re: Xcom (for DOS)

Bondi wrote on 2022-04-19, 20:33: Cute stuff. Thanks for sharing! PS I thought it had something to do with X-com game, so maybe it's worth editing the thread name to be more relevant.

Re: Radeon 8500LE vs 8500

Check if the board has faster RAM chips installed. Has 3.6ns Hynix TSOP chips. But Ive seen LE's with 3.3ns chips too... so I guess faster RAM is not an indicator of a real 8500. The faster RAM can potentially support the 275 mhz mem clock of non LE cards. Non LE cards won't come with 4ns RAM.
