I have a Voodoo2 STB Blacl Magic PCI card (name it was listed as) plugged in with a PCI Diamond Stealth 3d card. I have them plugged up to a Sony Vivitron/Trinitron 1572 Gateway 2000 monitor. The monitor is bright and beautiful plugged into my 486 machine. To the point I had to turn brightness down …

That combination of drivers seems to have done the trick! I am not several tests into the benchmark 😀 Can't wait to OC this thing.

I just went back and installed the 5.14 VIA drivers since they are one step older. I am also installing the 7.90 ATI drivers now. Capacitors appear fine. If this continues, would I be better off money wise to replace the motherboard with a non OEM board with a NForce chipset or replace the video …

Well, Windows crashes outside of safe mode with the mx400 card installed. Ugh. I know the FireGL card ran fine on another Athlon system I had.

My PSU specs are 380w total +5v=20a +3.3v=20a +12v1=17a +12v2=17a -12v=0.8a -5v=2.5a. Are these enough for the configuration?

Just tried a FireGL z1 (9500 basically) and it too crashed with the last drivers released for it in the same place. I still have a Geforce 400MX to test and see if it's an ATI incompatibility or what.

So far I removed the shim and installed fresh arctic silver 5 paste. I tried booting with just the 1GB and just the 256MB stick of RAM installed and still, when the second test loads up in the 3D Mark 2003 finished loading the entire system shuts down. I have what should be the latest VIA 4in1 …

I'll give that a check! I figuring it's that or maybe even RAM but this board doesn't allow booting off USB that I can see and I don't have a Optical drive in the case so I haven't ran MemTest86 yet. I installed MSI afterburner 1.5 but it doesn't seem to monitor GPU temps. Is there a way to measure …

I got curious and installed a Aztech 2320 and the same DreamBlaster S1 using all the same resources and initialized the car with the Unisound initializer and everything worked perfectly. I may try the Yamaha again using only Unisound and see what happens. But the Aztech card, which is just a Packard …

Looks like it's an Anigma board. Can't find squat else.

Well, it may be an Anigma board. Most I can find is it may be a LP48625SX model. All I found were jumper settings. I'm having a hard time finding compatible RAM, since all my extra RAM sticks don't seem to be compatible, and also I wonder if those are the same ISSI chips I have. I have four of ISSI …

So I purchased a low profile 486 to play with. It's a Gateway 2000 4SX-33 which seems pretty common. Just having a heck of a time finding the motherboard information. I'm at a board with two CPU sockets and two Opti Chips, one a 82c392 and the other a 82c495b as well as I see a small sticker that …

Wow, thanks for all the replies. I guess I will need to source a correct AC adapter as the SC-88 I bought is the VL model/version. And I never thought it would be difficult to find the cables to hookup to my sounds card! Guess I better start shopping!

I bit the bullet and bought a SC-88VL. I'm wanting to hook it up to the game port on my sound card, but still be able to use a gravis gamepad. Could someone point me to a reasonably priced cable that will allow this? Also, I know it's off topic but would I need to remove the DreamBlaster S2 from my …
