IIRC the original fan is 40x40x20mm I could not find a good replacement so I ended up using a 40x40x25mm Noctua fan but I had to do 2 things so it could fit: Looks like you've got a 60x60x25mm fan there if it's the NF-A6x25 FLX as per the label. Looks like most 60mm fans are 25mm thick. This one I …

Are there any recommendations for quieter fans that are compatible and fit inside the Mega PC PSU? I'm considering trying to reduce the volume a bit!

You're right that Win95 isn't a great everyday experience, it's more that I was expecting it to be even worse! :) I've got a Cyrix 486 clip-on CPU that I'm going to install once I've got everything stable which will be interesting to see if it improves Win95 a little but I suspect CPU frequency …

I’ve been playing with my Mega Card a lot the last few weeks and wanted to share a few experiences and ask a couple of questions here publicly in case the answers/discussion helps out others. First off, this thing is AMAAAZING. I’m no audiophile but I nearly wept when I first heard how rich and full …

Great review video now on RMC. https://youtu.be/nOyza3cOOqM Thanks keropi, looking forward to getting my hands on mine even more now!

A few things to share in my adventures with my MegaPC... The XT-CF ISA card I mentioned previously now works beautifully allowing me easy access to add/remove CF cards through the port at the rear. It was a little fussy with the first card I used and didn't like my usual 32Gb one but a 2GB card …

Thanks for the tips. I've ordered this XT-CF-Lite v4 card pre-built off ebay so hopefully that'll solve the easy CF access I'm looking for and allow me to copy off the hard drive contents (https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/313319542874). I've also ordered the CR2032 battery adapter, do you have any photos …

@Phipscube Great work on repairing that machine! I'm interested in the coin battery holder and whether it's safe to leave the battery in place long term within the case. I removed the old leaky battery which fortunately hadn't done too much damage but have been paranoid about leakage as a result. …

Thanks keropi, appreciate the explanation, it sounds like I should wait for your all-in-one card at the moment. My personal preference is to support reasonable operation without modding the original hardware so it's a trivially reversible upgrade just removing the ISA card but others may prefer the …

@keropi I've been watching the Orpheus posts on the main thread with interest. I'm a bit of a newbie to soundcards from this era, I'm no audiophile but I would like to get sound effects for DOS games from my Mega PC. Two questions: 1) I've noted a few comments around about a MegaPC-specific card you …

@smsdave correct me if I am wrong but from the pic I see the right-most pin connecting to R27 and then D7 (that is a charging blocking diode) so if this is truly the case then the right-most pin is the (+) side since you have a multimeter it's easy to find the (-) pin since it's ground: so pick a …

Welcome - seems like we're gathering a fair number of the megapc owners here on vogons ;) In answer to your questions - Don't know what type of external battery you'll be using, but if it's a lithum or other non-rechargeable, you'll definitely need to have a diode in the link to the motherboard …

Hey folks, I'm very excited to come across this thread with so many actively working on enhancing/repairing Mega PCs! After years of wanting one (having played on one back around ~1994 while a guest at someone's house), to supplement my Sega collection, I took a chance on acquiring a stock Mega PC …
