Philscomputerlab.com has DOS drivers for the SB live 5.1. Yes, but even so - PCI cards compatibility with DOS games in pure DOS is not as good as that of ISA cards, and the SB Live is not even among the most compatible ones. Ironically, PCI cards from other vendors often have better compatibility …

I spot potential mounting issues, if any ISA card, are longer than the slot it self. There are lots of componen behind the slots and there might be a problem with front panel wires. It is the header just behind the lowest positioned ISA slot. My advise, is to get an Audician32 type of card (YMF-718/ …

Uhh, My motherboard just died. Looks like a bad capacitor. I am going to swap it out for another one and try again.

First a big Thank You for this cool utility! I have an issue on my Pentium Pro build: setmul_ppro_gpf_s.jpg It is the same if I have loaded EMM386 or if I don't load any driver (F5 at DOS startup). What could I do? Disabling and re-enabling L1 cache works. Is it correct that it always disables ( …

I'm having this same issue, what bios file ended up working for your board? i'm trying the ss version because i have the SMC chip described with it, but i can only hot swap flash with another board and it doesn't seem to be working. Still have a low tone issue and don;t have the original bios to get …

Thanks for the information. I have to look up the intel Pentium Pro and Pentium II/III datasheet again regarding the L2 cache functions. But since I don't have access to a Pentium Pro system, this will most likely end up with me disabling the L2 cache function on Pentium Pro CPU's, since in practice …

Hey, get an Abit NF7, that one having a Nvidia chipset is more reliable than most other SIS/VIA ones :3 also it has AGP 3.0 so maybe your x700 will work on it owo Da specs: http://abit.ws/page/en/motherboard/motherboard_detail.php@pMODEL_NAME=NF7-S&fMTYPE=Socket+A And don't get so enthusiastic about …

X800/850 drivers for 98 are missing. To be fair, they are only beta drivers, but I haven't been able to find them in forever. Not that beta drivers from ATI from that time are fun to use anyway.

[...] My wife had a C-60 based netbook a few years ago . I could not find drivers for it on AMD's site even when it was current tech (i.e. fresh out of the store). That was a name thing. I also had a C-50 netbook and iirc you needed to look for either the codename of the APU ('Ontario') or for the …

At least you're using your own photos rather than mostly stock photos this time. Anyways, this is a very nostalgic build to me. That classic Gateway case design brings back memories of the late-9x and early-XP eras of computing. Quick question: Why do you have two DVD-ROM drives installed? I could …
