So in the model numbers is the letter after the ac-120 just countrythe country? Like if i found an aci-120c it should work fine correct?
Looking for sc-88vl psu

Finally got my hands on one but it came from Australia and the seller decided that since i was from the US i had no need for the power supply that came with it... 1. Does it matter if i use an aftermarket one or not? 2. Would a power supply from another similar model such as a sc-55 fit the power …

Ct4500 general midi support question
Posted on 2019-07-05, 02:21
I have this card and am running Dos 6.22 only. I read that this card can support general midi by itself but that it is hit and miss in pure dos when run by itself. Does this compatibility change when hooked to an external midi machine such as SC-55? Or should I look for another card for external …

Ok sounds good. I was under the impression that is ran off the 12v and that having both running 12v was too much so it wouldn't work. Thankyou.

Dreamblaster and gameport question
Posted on 2019-04-13, 18:00
I was wondering if someone could clarify something for me and also open to suggestions. I so have been looking into dreamblaster for some time now because i can’t get my hands on an midi setup easily. If my understanding is correct, using dreamblaster takes up the game port because it uses the …

Fat 32 or a second hard drive is fine. i dont care about the volume format as long as Dos can access it. I was just under the impression that there was an 8gb limit as to what could be accessed across all partitions on all discs. If this is not case though. Since the bios is patched for larger drive …

I hadnt honestly check till you mentioned it. The listing below isn't too bad if you add in everything there or resale it.

I have a tc-97-e Socket 7. I like it gives you alot of options in general. AT and ATX connectors, SIMM and DIMM slots, takes multiple processors from P54c 75mhz, to k6-2 233 or pentium mmx 233 and some cyrix chips. Has pci and 3 ISA. I was lucky enough to find one on the side of the road one day. My …

Also, you don't need to make your own FAT 16 partition, FDISK will just ignore anything beyond 8GB. Also a single 8GB partition in FAT16 is incorrect for DOS use. Biggest partition possible in DOS 4-7.0 is 2GB, but you can make 4 of them to have access to 8GB, so you'll need to re partition your …

UPDATE!!! VERY HAPPY CAMPER!!! Thankyou guys especially you Deksor. You can get a patched bios here that will let you use big HDDs (up to 128GB) : http://www.win3x.org/win3board/viewtopic.php?style=30&f=16&t=26232 This ended up working more or less. It got me past the post hang and I was able to …

The 32GB limit is a bug common for socket 7/slot 1 era. BIOS made before 1999 will have the bug and will hang when a bigger drive is detected. There are several ways of solving this : - update the bios to a newer version (the tx97 must have one) - Set the drive to a incorrect geometry in the bios …

Mobo is asus tx-97-e. This is a project computer i have been working on for a while. I recently replaced about 4 bulging caps on it. However i can still not get a full hdd recognition and start DOS instillation. The bios is detecting the hard drive but it hangs in the self check when searching for …

i agree that it is trivial. For the time being I ended up taking the support off the card i bought and tracing the vga on it with a sharpie. Took a dremel to it. Not the prettiest but decently effective. Its a little off on the bracket length for the slot. Probably about half and inch but i can just …
