thanks man. learning something new everyday I think the same. The converter even has an NTSC/PAL switch on the side. Some background information.. Both NTSC and PAL (+SECAM) are color standards. They're based on their older monochrome brothers, RS-170 (equals monochrome NTSC) and CCIR (equals …

thanks for the help. I've ordered that device

Hi guys. i just got a composite monochrome monitor (amdek 300) All my x86 computers are VGA , one PCI, two ISA I wish to connect at least one for ms-dos text stuffs. What is the best way to connect to the monitor? Would a “vga to component video transcoder” work? ( feeding the Y signal via composite …

Hi guys. I often have to re-buy these cheap adapters, they seem to be fragile, especially after you remove/re-insert CF disks a few times. Can notice the soldering is pretty bad. Are there any better alternatives ?

The suggestions to boot the PC without a video card are good. If for some reasons those suggestions do not work in your scenario, you might try to cover the ISA "MEMR" / "SMEMR" pin (B11) on your 3com card with sticky tape. *censor* me! It works! I covered the 12th pin and it boots! And I could run …

hi guys. Tried to enable boot rom on my etherlink isa card. accidentally set to address C0000. surely enough, it conflicts with the vga bios. as this card doesn't have dip switches, is my network card useless now ? as there's no way to disable it. (Unless, someone tells me I can plug in the card …

Sorry to bring up ancient thread. Can this case accept modern atx psu without any mods? And I was wondering what kind of mod u had to do to make the mobo fit? If I have a small matx board, will it fit? 173x244mm

Thanks all. New atx psu arrived. Both the 286 and 386 booted without explosion.

Hello guys it is me again. I’ve ordered an atx psu and atx-at cable. Not yet arrived Today I saw a youtube video. A guy demonstrated that his 286 computer has a capacitor hooked up to -5v rail. Does that mean those kinds of mobo cannot use ATX-AT cable that has no -5v supply?

Thanks a lot guys!! Good idea on testing without plugging in the mobo!

ok guys. I've orderd the ATX-AT cable , and a modern quality ATX PSU. When it arrives, I will connect them but won't switch on until I post photos first. Now, can I re-use the original switch on the AT case ? The AT case switch is Black-White Brown Blue the adapter cable has only Green and Black …

Thanks stef and gmbl. Not sure why the last time I tried the adapter it blew up. Perhaps I should give it another go? But first try with multimeter?

hello guys. I've acquired a 286 and 386 PC. after connecting them to my Pentium1 PSU, they both boots up. so today I bought another two AT psu, and both cannot be used. years ago, I've tried a modern ATX PSU with ATX-to-AT cable, and it blew up in smoke. These two vintage computers are my dream come …

Hi guys. Is it possible to connect a vt100 terminal (wyse wy-120) into a dos/win311 command line via serial null cable? Most articles I read are linux based. Would be nice to access my pc from this wyse terminal for dos command line to run text programs like gwbasic,edit.com etc…
