Some time ago, I tested a few PCI Geforce cards in my 486. Are the AGP->PCI bridges compatible with 486 machines?

Chips&Technologies F82C451:"A Lowend VGA solution. Support up to 16 cards in one system." http://vgamuseum.info/index.php/companies/item/178-chips-technologies-f82c451 However... with each added VGA display CPU performance is divided between the displays. It would seem that an effectual video …

Since low end 386sx motherboards often prove to be inappropriate for (and sometimes incompatible with) Win95 and NT, 16-bit drivers are of greater importance to 16-bit ISA cards. The 16-bit ISA bus predates 32-bit windows by nearly ten years. Cirrus Logic's AGP hardware might be more appropriate for …

Newer 16-bit ISA slots that work at enhanced speeds (faster than specified in the ISA standard) should be referred to as EISA. The lower speeds of ISA hardware should give accelerators such as the GD5434 a chance to shine.

After testing my 486sx/16 with a GD5422, I found it to be particularly slow. Do you think that an accelerated cirrus chip like the GD5434 would be a better choice for such a machine?

The term "GUI accelerator" does not refer to the datarate of a particular BUS. A card's internal datarate may be much faster than the ISA bus. Telling a video card to draw a complex shape may be faster than sending it a picture of one. When a GPU is less capable than the main CPU it can have a …

My AST Bravo dx2/66 already has a PCI gd5434 with 2mb onboard. However, as a PCI card the GD5434 is not particularly fast. I have a 486/33 machine with 1mb/GD5428 onboard. Even for my 486/25 with onboard GD5424, a 2mb 5434 would hardly be an upgrade. My 386 machines already have 1mb video cards. …

High value would only suggest that the the item is expensive, however, a new creation is not simply a white rhinoceros. The implementation of technological advancements in hardware should not be confused with emulation. Emulation often provides hardware as it never was and never could be. (pink …

Looking at this as a Windows accelerator: Clip art and Metafiles were supposed to be scalable. Higher resolutions, would help prove the chips polygon acceleration. Why would anyone try for an overpriced red herring when they could create a genuine white elephant? The GD5434 might not be paradise, …

Would the GD5434 be a good card for a 16mhz 386sx? What classic DOS software supports the video acceleration features of the GD5434?

Newer 486 machines quite often have hardware better than an ISA GD5434. And ISA cards with 1mb are quite common (and less expensive). This sounds like a tedious and difficult process. Why would you aim for anything less than superlative results? With a GD5434, you might not make the fastest ISA card …

Perhaps you should use 4mb of memory with a gd543-4. Someone told that their ISA GD5424 was too slow to be of help to their 486. What type of machine would an ISA GD5434 actually accelerate? I once tried an ISA WD90C33 in my 286 and found that there were no drivers supporting it's accelerated …

A good GUI accelerator? Would a card like this work with a 286? Are there 286 compatible Windows drivers with support for the GD5434? Could you use something like this? https://akroncanton.craigslist.org/sop/d/lake … 7105438108.html

Windows 10 is still sold by Microsoft. MS Tech support should be able to provide you with full help and support.

Thank you for the help changing cputype works sorry about the vague description I was testing different compilers http://win31.no-ip.org/freeware/programi/oofd16.zip And for compilers that output win32s apps (but require win32) dos box is nice pentium_slow works fine but guess a pentium4_slow is …

windows 3.11 and most win32s apps seem to work ok using dos box using .73 win32s apps made with the masm32 package dont seem to be working masm32 (link /FIXED:NO)
