The problem does not appear with the English version of Wing Commander 3 (I always tested with the German one). I will test that later when the HD is plugged on the onboard IDE.

Ok so finally the CDRom isn't the problem it showed up again. So a different approach. I got a Promise Ultra33 IDE PCI controller and plugged there the HD (DOM). CDRom wont work there with DOS (sadly). I kept the CDRom on the onboard secondary controller and disabled the primary. The WC3 setup works …

Ok I just tried this now. I removed the DOM from the onboard IDE controller and installed the PCI sata controller and connected a 150GB sata drive I had here in spare. FDISK sadly says the drive has a max of only 512MB but fine for the moment. C created, dos and drivers installed. WC3 setup started …

Is the CDROM drive working okay ? Yes, it did work all well with my M912 setup. Have you tried with slower DRAM / SRAM (Cache) timings? I just did, set it to slowest and played around with it. The game starts but freezes randomly when I video scenes - but as a victory I was able to copy the files …

hey everyone, so I got this board last year (or was it 2019?) and now I found the time to dig into and all seems to work fine with an AMD 5x86 (or smaller CPUs). I was able to install Dos6 and Win311. But when I try to install eg. Wing Commander 3 the setup stops randomly when I try to copy the …

GF3 DVI + NEC1970NX > Problem

hey, I finally had a bit more time and installed my GF3 TI to be able to use DVI out. So far all works fine but there is a little problem. When I start e.g. Wing Commander 3 and watch the intro in the scenes when it switches between the actors (like when they stay in front of the Concordia) the …

HOWEVER, fdisk and format that come standard with win 98 are bugged and have problems above 64GB. Fdisk is the more critical one as it has problems creating partitions on drives above 64GB, either find a patched fdisk, or partition it with another OS. Format only has a display bug and shows a …

I just want to use a 120GB SSD but is there generally a way to test it just out of curiosity. Like a program to write the drive full?
