I don't think uploading CD or Floppy images with a photo CD / Floppy is going to be causing too many issues.

If you'd need someone to test a CD, shouldn't be hard to find someone here 🤣

One thing I always run into is trying to find out, well what's the difference between this and that version. A lot of the drivers uploaded to the archive have little notes, which are awesome because someone used them and has a bit of feedback to give.

My 2 cents: there are already places where one can find things like vga_driver.zip, I don't think we need one more 😉 I'd vote towards keeping it neat and clean, thus more usable than having more content of doubtable quality.

Perhaps we could have a Comments box follow Description, in order to encourage this.

Great job! Two things:
1. The folder icon should change to "open" beside where the text has been bolded in the tree menu (this is not happening for me upon a folder change)
2. If you wanted to get REAL fancy, your tree menu should also remember the status of the [+] and [-] of each folder with subfolders. Not sure if that matters to anyone though... 😀

1. Done
2. That could get a bit messy, but I'll put it on the list.

Uploads seem to have slowed down 🙁

I'll scan my drives for anything I think is interesting that I haven't yet shared...

I have a request:
The Aztech driver for the Waverider Platinum asks for files from the Aztech "MIDI Music Workstation CD".
Does anyone have this CD?

Mike,
No luck the the Aztech stuff either so far 🙁 Could have sworn I have the original disks and a CD but they are gone. Hope someone else still has them.

on the general topic:

I recently uploaded some LS-120 Superdisk drivers "stolen and rebranded" from the MSFN Forums as some interest raised (yep Bristlehog, I hope you will find these useful)
I am also planning a massive IBM PS/2 driver upload.

I have uploaded GraV UTIL V2.0 and V4.0.. Its software from gravis to calibrate your joysticks and gamepads in dos.. This software is also need for the gravis eliminator game card:

http://www.vogonsdrivers.com/getfile.php?file … =765&menustate= the software comes from the old gravis website from its own source.

Better save then sorry.

I have a driver disk to share if the Driver Library dosnt have it already.

Its the driver disk for the 8 bit ISA Video Seven "Vega" VGA/EGA/CGA card.
I found the driver disk on a 20MB HDD installed in a 286 system with said video card so I can not know for sure if the package is complete.
EDIT: There were a "CONTENTS.DOC" file and it seems the package is complete.

I have uploaded the archive to a free file dump site for now, it would be great if someone with access to the driver library could upload the file.

Done! 😀

I've made .ISO of the driver disc for SimFUSION 6000/6500 graphic cards, it is the latest available driver for Windows XP. Here is the link http://vgamuseum.ru/wp-content/uploads/2015/0 … SION_driver.zip

I uploaded all Aztech ISA Sound Galaxy drivers from their old ftp. Repacked everything to straight ZIP to avoid issues with 16bit stubs in antique installers. I know some drivers are already present on Vogonsdrivers, yet, please allow me some replication in this bundle.

I have been slowly working on finishing up my Retro DOS/Win98SE machine and finally put the last part in.. an Audigy 2 ZS Platinum.

I downloaded the Driver CD ISO from here, but after much searching, I was able to find a download for the EAX 4.0 driver update that supports WIN98SE. Creative no longer has this file linked on their support page, so I think it should be posted to the driver library.

http://www.filedropper.com/sba2webuppcwdrv1-84-40

The description of the update is as follows:

EAX 4.0 ADVANCED HD Driver Patch Update for Sound Blaster Audigy 2 and Audigy 2 ZS

Thanks. I uploaded it to VOGONS Driver.

Thanks!

After digging around some more, I think I was able to find the rest of the Win98 compatible Audigy2/ZS driver update packages.

(Supposedly this one is supposed to be installed before 1-84-40)
http://www.filedropper.com/sba2eax4drv031031

Last weekend I successfully installed a OPTi 82C925 based sound (SB Pro compatible) card in Windows 95+DOS, using drivers I got from here: http://www.mmnt.net/db/0/0/soporte.uson.mx/FT … DIO/OPTI/82C925
925d_w.exe contains DOS and Windows 3.11 software/drivers. (Didn't test the windows 3.11 apps/drivers, the dos software works)
925w95dx.zip contains Win95 drivers (these appear to be working just fine, got sound and midi)
925wnt.exe (Windows NT drivers, untested)

It took me quite a while to find these drivers. Perhaps it could be added to vogonsdrivers.com?

More info: The site appears to be a mirror of this ftp: ftp://soporte.uson.mx/FTP/DRIVERS/AUDIO/OPTI/82C925
This is the 'support' ftp of a Mexican university "Universidad de Sonora". I noticed there are many more drivers on that site, so it may be a good idea to get a copy.

Hi all, some pretty awful personal stuff going on right now, sorry for the delay in checking on this thread.

I'm uploading those 3 as we speak, it would be cool if someone could have a poke around and see if there's anything we don't already have.

Well I suggest adding the rest of the Opti chipset stuff as well - that is the good thing on that Mexican site, they also have 924, 933 etc drivers so adding all these small drivers to ONE "joker" OPTi package makes more sense less clutter on the list and not much overload on the server either (if you need want one driver, no trouble getting all instead)
That is what I always try to, all-inclusive but reasonably small packages.
