Re: My C3 800 rig

Posted on 2018-01-03, 01:23

man you really are into the computers no one else even looks at! I can relate to your story though. We had a Apple IIe until it was replaced with a 486 in 1995 which was when my interest in computing really started. Funny thing was after awhile I felt sorry? for the Apple which I never had much …

EDIT: The processor now runs at 225 MHz, due to the FSB being 75MHz, the boost is not very noticeable, but still worth, so there are new benchs: Phil's Dos Benchmarks: 3DBench 1.0: 90.9 FPS 3DBench 1.0C: 89.3 FPS Chris's 3DBench: 153.5 - 92.1 FPS Chris's 3DBench 640x480: 37.1 - 22.3 FPS PCPlayer …

I like that kind of "weirdness" and "uniqueness" Then you'll probably like the computer I'm going to start a build thread for soon... :D heh heh heh Okay then, i'll be waiting for your post! Your a nicer guy them most of us! Most of us wouldn't have bothered with a PC Chips motherboard, especially …

Wouldn't for a PII PC 128mb of RAM and a 6.4gb HDD be more period correct? maybe, don't know. But the machines that I make aren't period correct. I don't like to be "restricted" to the period correctness. also don't have a better board nor better processor. and don't want to buy anything, just want …

Re: Rarest CPUs?

Is the withdrawn PIII-1.13 Coppermine rare, or did a lot of them stay out there in the wild? i think they are extremely rare. they were supplied to oem only, so they were easily recalled without leaking, save for a few test samples given to media which they kept as evidence and denied to return. I …

You can pre-install DOS 6.22 to the hard drive by moving the hard drive to another computer which has a floppy drive. Alternately, you can make a copy of the installation diskettes onto the hard drive by moving the hard drive into another computer. The thing is, don't have any diskettes, and the …

Capture card problem

Posted on 2017-12-28, 14:30

Hi, i'm having some problems related to my capture card. It's a Pinnacle PCTV 110i, uses the Phillips SAA7133 chip. The problem is, the maximum resolution allowed is 320x240, which makes the image very blurry. In some computers I have been able to use up to 720x576 with this card but now i'm not …

RAM: 64MB EDO? (don't know how to differenciate in between EDO and FPM) Just look at the chips. If the last two digits before the speed are 00 (eg. xxx4 00 -70), then it's fast-page. Otherwise it's EDO. The chips used are these: Sticks 1 and 2: 9732 P USA MT4C4M4E8DJ -6 Stick 3: TI -60 TMS417409ADJ …

M558... that brings back memories. Probably the most obscure chipset even PC Chips ever used. I remember it not being able to run Linux (at least, not the Knoppix LiveCD I used around 2005-ish). It looked like it was BIOS/IRQ related, and certainly IRQs were a mess on that thing, which might be why …

Thanks feipoa, i will try to find a copy of wordperfect and install it. About getting dos and win3.11 installed, have to get the compact flash, put in a newer laptop that supports boot from USB, and with E2B install Ontrack to get it working in the 386. The big problem is that because Dos 6.22 is 3 …

Well, have some laptops but the computers are set when were to be used. Have all kinds of CRT but now, mainly because of space and heat, i'm using a LCD monitor. Have a kvm-like switch for monitor only but because doesn't pass the DDC information to the pc, is stored. The problem (or maybe my …

Re: Did you get something good for Xmas this year?

in Milliways
I got to upgrade my main rig with a new RX560, and nothing else. I got practically nothing this year. One generous person donated me $75.00 but other than that, I got nothing. I had a really stressful and terrible Christmas season and my days may very well be numbered now... Don't worry and don't …
