The graphics card pictures in this article are based on my graphics card collection, but I also borrowed some of the pictures. I would like to express my sincere thanks! Now take a photo with an nVIDIA graphics card to conclude this article. In September 2014, nVIDIA China learned that I was the …

Not anymore, sadly. :( Edit: Connectix Virtual PC 2 & 3 on Macintosh supported a Voodoo 2 (V1 inofficially too). - The Voodoo 2 was officially supported by Mac OS 9.x, too. There were native Mac OS games that used it. To be a little more clear, this isn't actually Voodoo emulation but it's instead …

Merged with the other thread and moved back to Marvin -> General Old Hardware. I'm rather puzzled really. The past few years we've seen projects that have found a way to emulate pretty much everything under the sun, new Sound Blaster compatible sound cards and a host of other things yet one of the …

Could the watermarking with the free version of Power Director be causing the problem? I can spend the money to upgrade. No, the problem is that you uploaded video that's copyrighted to YouTube. Depending on how you've edited it together, you may be able to file a counter-claim for fair use. …

Well, I used MakeMKV and PowerDirector to make a cut from the BBC version of Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy. When I tried to upload I got a message that it is copyrighted material. Does that mean that as technology improves we will discover making cuts of movies doesn't work anymore? The software …

Wow. I’m impressed. What’s your connection to 3Dfx / 3dfx and just how many of their cards do you own? Would love some backstory. I'm not yjfy but as far as I can remember, yjfy's just a collector - albeit one with a huge, well-organized collection. And anything he doesn't own, he collects JPEG's …
