Hi everybody,
First post here - be gentle!
One of my retro-based hobbies involves running PC bridgeboards on my Amigas. I have an NEC V30, a 286, a 386, and a 486SLC2/50 (soldered on board what was a 386SX A2386SX 😀 ).
In my quest for ultimate speed (in other words, enough to run Ultima VII), I have overclocked the ISA bus to 13.5MHz. This works perfectly with the graphics card (my trusty Cirrus Logic Thunderbolt ISA 1MB SVGA) and my IDE card (FutureTech PowerIDE thingy). However, I have now tried about 8 sound cards and none of them work. I knew this was going to be difficult, ISA sound cards being as finicky as they are, but nonetheless even the later Yamaha OPL-based cards don't work.
Does anyone know a sound card that works with stupid ISA bus speeds?
Thanks for any help!
(By the way - is my .sig ok? My real intention isn't to advertise my shop but I like people to know about it. Don't want to break any rules though).
