Thank you. Mmmh...currently trying another motherboard, and it seems like the same issues don't happen. Could different socket 3 motherboards send varying amount of current per slot? I was kinda expecting some kind of standard. continuing my tests.
ISA Riser problems
Posted on 2024-02-04, 12:55
Hi all, I now have a cool flat AT case I really like, that includes an ISA riser for horizontal setup of cards. My understanding of ISA risers was that they were pretty simple and straightforward - just adds new slots sharing the existing ISA bus. The ISA riser card has 3x 16 bits slots on one side …

Ctmouse will report a "mouse systems" mouse even when nothing is plugged in to the serial port at all Indeed and why I initially thought it wasn't working even with the ISA IO card... used to the "Logitech" mode coming up when all is fine. No it's not a jumper, and the Soyo 025K motherboard I'm …

Yes, tested many good working mice. So this is really puzzling to put it mildly...after more tests, in fact with the ISA controller the mouse is detected as Mouse Systems Mode by ctmouse (alternatively, Logitech drivers 6.50 also finds it fine) and works fine in CheckIt Pro, FastTracker 2 and Space …
Serial mouse woes

I am losing my mind and missing something stupidly obvious? I'm trying to get a 486 VLB build going. Everything goes fine, except I can't get a damn serial mouse working. - Tried two different ATX power supplies (with an AT converter), and measured all voltages fine in both cases including -12V (one …

Where are you located? maybe someone with a programmer can send you a flashed chip. I'm in Switzerland, have one and happy to help if you're close.

Oh and same friend also gave me a like-new MS Sidewinder FFB Pro complete in box. Both the wheel and joystick spent the last 15-20 years in his dad's attic. Score! 😀 Filename FFB.png File size 406.39 KiB Views 104 views
Logitech Wingman Formula (black) pedals not working
Posted on 2023-12-21, 16:58
And now for something completely different... A friend gave me his old Logitech Wingman Formula (the first one, black wheel, no FFB, gameport version) and I was of course happy to give it a good home. Tried on two different Win98 machines (that both work with another Logitech wheel I own), installed …

I'm afraid your quest can only end in disappointment and disbelief, but who am I to judge. The urge to complete it is probably too strong and having been through similar things, I can only understand. Still, after several years of getting back into the hobby, I can only tell you one thing I'm …

Fellow industry worker for 20+ years. The fatigue is real. Retrocomputing is so refreshing! 😁 I've also setup a FTP on my Synology NAS for all my retro machines. Works wonders and I don't need anything more.

Necroposting my own thread as I'm doing some cleaning and just stumbled upon those 64p SIMMs again...I have no use for them but I just hate throwing stuff away. Would anyone want them? Maybe to reuse the RAM chips, or whatever?
