Thanks for the comments. My i486/66MHz setup is time correct, this setup is a mixed bag of components I currently have to get 3D accelerated games working. The Mystique and Voodoo1 cards come from my old P200 MMX setup from 1998. All my SB16-compatible cards are equipped with a CQM synthesis chip …

Dear Forum Members, I am currently testing out my friend's "CC Power" Pentium 90MHz build for replacing my current main retro build, an i486/DX2@66MHz with plain ISA slots only. The P90 came a CT6610 (Permedia 2) and an UltraSound PnP w/1MB. Previously, I've been interested in early 90s era stuff …

Hi, OS: MS-DOS 6.00 Sound card: Roland SCC-1 When selecting "Roland Sound Canvas" as the Music Board and trying to start Transport Tycoon (V1.06.011) the following error occurs and the game won't start: System Error TNT.40026: Coundn't unlink debug state from list The game has been installed from …

Thanks for the comments. I don't mind the 504 MB limit as long as the CF card is auto-detected by my old AMIBIOS and can be partiotioned using FDISK. Not sure on IT-PACK4's BIOS, no signs shown during POST of it at least. The MB's AMI date is 060692 and auto-detect has already maxed out all params …

Dear Forum Members, I'm looking for a CF card-based bootable hard disk replacement for my 486 system. The main use case is to swap files easily between the 486 and current PC. The 486 has an IT486SR as the motherboard and an IT-PACK4 ISA card for handling hard disks and floppy drives. The system …

I have a CT1350B rev 3 with CT1336. Can anyone please either provide information where to buy the 3rd (or all 3) chip(s) or sell the chip(s) directly? Thanks.

As I was reinstalling this title on my 486 system, I discovered that disk 1 is corrupted (tested on two other systems). Does anyone have this disk or know where to get replacement installation disks for ancient titles? http://www.mobygames.com/game/wing-commander-academy/cover-art/gameCoverId,83806/ …

The real value becomes lost when dealing with nostalgia/emotions... I got mine (manual, cables and the disk) for 80 euros a few years back but still wouldn't disclose this sum to my spouse.

Why on earth would you use MT-32 emulation for Ultima 6 when you have an MT-32 and Ultima 6 does support it? (Ultima VI came out before Roland GS devices.) I have no other proof than the quote below ( http://www.geocities.com/nodling/ultima/ultima.html ) and my own suspicions after comparing Ultima …

not sure if this is what you needed Almost but not quite. This is exactly the same dir-listing of the Windows/PlatinumEdition version that I currently have and am trying to make the DOS version from... I need this same kind of listing but from the Heroes of Might and Magic I DOS version, since the …

I'm trying to build a working/playable MS-DOS version CD-ROM from the Platinum Edition's Win95/98 version CD-ROM of HOMM1. The audio tracks (the game music) are clear but information about the data track (especially the animations) is needed. A simple "DIR /S" listing from the root should be …

It's pain but thanks to a recent acquisition of HOMM1 for DOS I can revert back to MS-DOS 6.22. The next improvements concern main system memory (16MB should be sufficent) and maybe a slightly faster processor. 33MHz is optimal for early Wing Commanders and Ultima 7 but then Wing Commander 3 is pain …

Here's my PC-gaming system that I've saved from my youth. Recent additions consist of a non-PnP Sound Blaster and the Roland MT-32. Processor: Intel i486 33MHz Memory: 8MB SDRAM Display Adapter: Trident 8900CL 1MB Multi-IO: IT-PACK4 Multi-Function Card CD-ROM Controller: MKEPanasonic NIC: NE2000 …
