Current Classic System Config:

Note: There have been some changes in my setup - namely the graphics cards, since the last time I've put up this topic about a year ago.
The changes are not reflected in the (old) pictures.

Taken the casing from my previous P4 based system.

Older games which are speed sensitive are played on my newer system with Dosbox.

Things to do : 1. I have a Geforce 6800 Ultra AGP coming my way. Just wanted to know in the mean time, will it work without problems with the AGP 4X slot in this system?
Otherwise I have to set up my P4 board with 8x AGP slot for these.
For convenience sake, I would prefer to use my classic system which has all the goodies in it. Currently, my trusty Geforce4 Ti4200 AGP 8X is sitting on it.

2. Ordered another matching 3dfx Voodoo 2 with the SLI connector.

Other considerations :

1. The SBAWE32 is configured at A220 I5 D1 H5 P300 E620
The MIDI Port 300 setting avoids conflict with LAPC-I's default P330. I've also set the LAPC-I's IRQ to it's default 2/9.
The AWE32 is connected via the Joystick-MIDI cable to the SC-55. MIDI transmission so far is flawless via this port. All General MIDI messages are sent to the SC-55 MKII.
In Windows 3.11, I've also set the default MIDI output as the AWE32's MIDI port. Hence, all MIDI activities under Windows 3.11 are handled by the SC-55. And yes, games like Gabriel Knight I Windows version, plays under the SC-55.
The AWE32 has Digital S/PDIF connection to a coaxial output which is connected to the surround receiver.

2. Turtle Beach Montego II with NEC Yamaha DB60XG clone, which is lying around and not installed yet.

Notes:

1. All Sierra games run without problems in pure dos, in terms of detecting the Sound Blaster hardware, after using GoSierra patch utility.

2. Lucasfilm Games/Lucasarts games run flawlessly.

3. So far Quake I plays smoothly at 1024x768 using GLQuake. And so does Heretic II. The Build engine is smooth too using the Geforce.

4. Crusader No Regret Rocks in pure DOS! 😁

5. Monkey Island 2 still rocks with the LAPC-I! 😁
Heck! Any game supporting Roland MT-32/LAPC-I rocks!

6. Whatever that had been run successfully in my then 286 of yesteryears, ran here too.

7. One word of deep appreciation goes to Lucasart's Adventure Games of the Golden Era : Wonderful coding makes them play just like how it was meant to play on an IBM PC XT/AT compatibles. Excess speed doesn't degrade the performance or good experience of these games in newer system. Can't say the same for Sierra's Adventures. Some sequence yield to the high speed but doesn't render unplayable. Some sequence like the Yorick's Maze in Quest For Glory I VGA can be altered using moslo or such programs for that particular sequence alone.

8. Of course, playing Wing Commander I and other speed sensitive games is out of the question in this system specs. But Dosbox is always there in my newer system to re-live the exact classic experiences of these games.

9. The Hard Drives are mounted upside down for optimum heat reduction and this is the only convenient way with respect to the case's racks.

10. Both the AWE32 and LAPC-I are competing in Who's the Longest competition. 😁 Though not very clear in the picture, the LAPC-I still leads by a quarter of an inch. In fact, it's so long and since it's only an 8-bit card, as you can see, the end of the board is slightly deviated down due to gravity.
The AWE32 has additional 2x16MB 30-pin SIMMS (28MB Available). Using 8MB GM ROM samples.

Details of the HDD partition can be found here.

Other classic systems : A Pentium 133 based system with 64MB EDO RAM and a yet to finish 486 DX2 66 based system.
