Awesome - Thanks for all the details! I think we've got a fully functional model now! - Card seats fully now and clears the adjacent PCI slot - New clip layout allows for you to slide the whole thing on from the top and the flexible clip on the bottom locks it in place nicely. a_h_adl - i'd love to …

If you have those models as well, i'd be interested in them for sure. My fans arrived early, and those fit perfectly so it should just be a matter of adjusting these clips 😀 What size screws were you planning to use out of curiosity? Good to hear that it went relatively well so far. I was expecting …

Wow - this is great - thank you for sharing the original files as well! Do you have any issues if I share any modifications I need to make back here? Again, greatly appreciate the time you put into this, it's a lovely model 😀 No problem at all! Feel free to use, change and share your results, happy …

I realize it's been a hot minute, but figured it's worth asking again... any chance you'd share these designs for us to 3d print? Sure, I have attached the model below as Zip file. It contains the STL files for upper and lower pieces. I also attached the STP file if you need to measure anything or …

Just use BootIt Bare Metal and you'll never look back.

Not just motherboards, but also CPU's and graphics cards. one or two spares for each build. They are getting hard to find so better to be ready...

No pics because it needs surgery first, but got a LuckyTech P6VBX7. If the TRW wants hi-res photos of it as is, let me know and I'll take some as soon as I get home. Socket 370 on Baby-AT form factor? Wow, I haven't seen one in my lifetime. :smiley: Learning new stuff everyday. There are many: …

Still not sure if the issue is caused by pure speed or there is something else in the background triggering it. I tried to eliminate the issue by disabling the L1 cache on already disabled L2 and downclocked to 133 MHZ SL2QC, which made it too slow for dos to boot up in almost over a minute; but …

Surround Module works flawlessly; it passes the test and works in Dune. The only quirk I noticed was the mixer menu wasn't always showing up when pressing Alt + Shift + m. Not sure it was a memory related issue or some minor speed sensitivity problem.

What a nice recreation! I really enjoyed the sound quality of this card. On a side note I have to say the card is fully operational using SL2QC (Klamath PII downclocked to 133 MHz) without any issue on an ASUS P3B-F. I just needed to reserve card's IRQ's in the BIOS and that's it. CPU Multiple …

The question arises: what more could you ask for in the future? 😁 What I 'd like to see eventually is a modular board to accept different add-ons instead of having different fully made ones. So the board itself acts as a soundcard motherboard including all the high quality analogue routes, …

I have been re doing and getting new retention brackets for many Slot 1 motherboards I have. Some do not have anything and I have been looking for the bottom screws to go in. Asked on The Retro Web discord and they responded 6-32UNC as well. Will look for 1/2 length. Thank you. V I have ordered …

Very clever way! which software you use for creating and restore the “half installation image”? because i think it must adapt at the different har disk size: if i install on my dx4 i can use maximum to 8gb HD, if i use it in my P4 i can use 60gb HD and so on… I use BootIt Bare Metal https://www. …

Windows 98 starts to initialize the hardware during installation after the first reboot. You can move the hard disk to any other system with floppy CD-Rom, Partition the disk, copy the installation CD to your local HDD and start installation process from your hard disk folder. Right after the first …

This was my take on for cooling my Voodoo3's about 3 years ago but never ended up 3D printing it as my printer has been broken since. it uses two Noctua NF-A4x10 and two 3D printed parts screwed together and the whole assembly just snapped on the stock heatsink with tabs without any modifications to …
