You are most correct. I, honestly, thought that I needed to equip extra fuel or something in the load out. After doing some digging, I had the same reaction that you did.

I have another option that I've been investigating. I discovered a program called HotkeyP that allows me to assign a hotkey to an EXE. I can also include parameters. So, I wondering if there is a Win98 program that (1) will consume a lot of power (perhaps Prime95) when running and (2) allows one to …

Thank you for showing this. I am attempting to recreate this with a system from the era (PIII) and a Raspberry Pi 3. My first step is to get it working on my PIII.

What about running one of the Dosbox version with NE2000 support based on an installed pCap driver on a Raspberry Pi ? I didn't know that was a thing. Thanks. I'll look into that. I did a quick search and found this site . Looks like a good start. And this sentence looks promising: This patch can …

The computers talk to each other on the network -- so, it's one computer per monitor. Here is more detail about Three Screen Mode . I currently …

I might be wrong here. But are we talking 40-pin versus 80-pin cables? Yes, the connector might be 40-pin for both, but the cables aren't both 40-pin. I did a quick ebay search and each 40-pin cable does not have a blocked pin. But, all of the 80-pin cables do.

I'm not sure what you mean by blocked pin.

I bet, based on this pin-out, that you can use a 40-pin IDE hard drive cable.

Can you write up a diagram with what pin connections you used for each connector of your 40-pin Ribbon mod ? Here are the diagrams for all of the cables/connectors I made http://markschamel.com/pictures/diagram.cable.40pinbreakout.png http://markschamel.com/pictures/diagram.cable.4pincdaudio.png …

OK. I'll show a few more wrong/incomplete points. Fix them please. 6) SPDIF2 INPUT 9) SPDIF3 OUTPUT 15) SPDIF1 INPUT 17) SPDIF0 OUTPUT 19) SPDIF1 OUTPUT 22) SPDIF2 OUTPUT It's exact pinout and in DOS 0.49/1.01 mixers you meet exact these channels "names". Okay, this should be updated too. Thanks, …
