OK, I've discovered something. When I look into the files (from WinWorldPC), COMMAND.COM is there, but after getting those images onto disk (by WinImage and RawWrite), COMMAND.COM and some other files don't show up when I look on the disk. So is it a writing issue?

Command.com is the command line program, essentially the DOS "front end". Sounds like your MS-DOS 6.22 was not installed correctly, or the install disks are incomplete. There should literally be a file called "command.com" in one of the install disks for MS-DOS. I looks like my disk image is fine; …

Installing MS-DOS 6.22 on my Pentium. However, every time it starts loading MS-DOS, it states, "Bad or missing Command Interpreter. Enter correct name of Command Interpreter (e.g, C:\COMMAND.COM". Is this just from where I found the boot disk, how I got it onto floppy, or is it my computer? How can …

Beats me, but here are the videos I compared: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rTPTNTeE4xc https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=K2Jxf353FWI Apples and oranges. The first one is a sample based synth, the second one is using OPL3 FM. Sorry, I'm not very educated one soundcard stuff, so what does that …

I think I have a plan: I'll get the ES1869F first, as it's cheaper, and I know what exactly sounds like, then I'll get the A151-A00 soon after. Oh and snag yourself a Crystal CS423X based card too - these are my latest faves! Crystal Semi cards have great performance, although avoid CS4235 cards as …

The verdict is here: G200, it is!

I planned on getting an ESS Audiodrive ES1869F as my first sound card, but I've also thought about a Yamaha A151-A00. I haven't heard any samples, so I don't know what it sounds like. Anyone here know what it's like? Also, I've heard of people using soundcard solely for sound effects. Does the …

I'm finally down to two cards: Matrox Millennium G200 STB Velocity 128ZX I'm leaning toward that STB, as I can actually get it in person, and it seems superior. Any opinions?

SOLVED IT! Turned out that the last person switched the jumper on the HDD around. The jumper was double sided, and someone used the wrong end. Everything works now!

So a few things to begin. It would be best if you explicitly mention the model of the motherboard, model of the drive, and any other devices on that or other IDE cables. Edited in original post now. Kind of important! Maybe the cable was upside down so it was incorrectly inserted to drive (should …

After opening up a computer, I noticed that the last person did not connect the IDE cable to the CD drive, despite it having a number set on slave. When plugged in, the drive did not open or closed but did when disconnected again. I do not know how these are set up, so any help is appreciated! …

I think a P120 is too slow for any 3D accelerated gaming. What you have now is great for most DOS games though! Another option that is easier to find is a Voodoo3 2000 PCI. That's a better DOS card than the Mach64 and it will be at least as good as a Voodoo in Win9x, maybe cheaper and easier to …

Just heard about this board and want to ask a question. I recently received a Pentium 120 machine from my school. It did come with a graphics card, an ATI Mach64 Wincharger, which is good for 2D games, from what I hear. I want to upgrade to some 3D card, but I'm on a tight budget of <$30. I thought …
