hey guys
so maybe some of you might have noticed that i own + operate a site that focuses on old tech for music production purposes
called http://www.oldschooldaw.com - during the process of researching information for my website it came to my attention
some notes from i think a cubase installation - i think it was a readme file - but it had some notes to do with a problem that came about
from manufacturers altering the actual windows graphics driver file in a way that had a detrimental effect on MIDI timing, due to the video card driver locking up the PCI bus or something... in the end the person reccommended to use a Matrox card (i forget which) because the driver had an option to re-enable the pci bus check or something? to avoid this detrimental effect in cubase

ok i found the actual post i made on that subject here:
http://www.oldschooldaw.com/forums/index.php/ … 73.msg1006.html

so if u visit there it will explain the problem better then i can off the top of my head..
(it basically says that the video card was responsibly for glitches in audio on sound card... if u used a PCI sound card in combination with PCI graphic cards..)

so yea basically im looking for reccommendations on what EARLY PCI video cards from 1994/1995
there are available + purchasable somehow...

i have an ATI MACH64 that i still have from when i was 18 years old but its broken im trying to get it fixed
thanks to some helpful tips by some vogons users about the missing electronic components.. i just have to get
a 150 UH inductor for my local electronics repair guy to solder onto my board + i should be good.. the card works
it just comes up asyellow because its signal path for the blue filter is severed by the broken component i broke
20 years ago probably with a screwdriver attempting to screw the card in to whateevr machine iwas putting it in..

anyway yea.. so basically im looking for alternatives to the mach64... VGA PCI cards that are from the mid 90s (1994 / 1995)
can i browse vgamuseum by date? i dont think it lets u otherwise i wouldnt have had to make this post 😉
