Isn't that card not actually Plug-And-Play ? AFAIK, Unisound only works with Plug-And-Play cards . According to this https://www.vogons.org/viewtopic.php?f=46&t=49896 , running Diagnose.exe /s is all you need . The review mentions "semi-PnP", but the description actually implies jumperless soft- …

The dead Sound blaster 16 CT2230

Posted on 2021-03-01, 19:07

I have acquired recently a non working sound blaster 16 CT2230. The card is in perfect aesthetic condition but the card is not detected when inserted in my trusty Pentium MMX 233 (tested with Unisound drivers). I have thoroughly cleaned it and deoxidized it and not detected any short on the ISA …

You say the system is running flawlessly as is, Whats the currant video card? Well, I've been using an ATI rage XL "replica" bought on aliexpress :-) I was expecting nothing of it and basically just used it as a temporary solution. Everything I thrown at it ended up running pretty well (2d and …

Pentium 233MMX + Matrox G450?

Posted on 2021-01-05, 17:56

Hi there! I've recently put together a Pentium MMX 233 for pure dos gaming (I am using Freedos 1.2) and it's working flawlessly. I have a Matrox G450 PCI laying around, would you considered it as a good option to pair with the p233? Maybe it is a bit overkill? Any recommendation? Thanks!!

Re: I de-CQMed my AWE32 PnP CT3990...!

OK, lemme see what I can recall of my fix-up of the CT2940... it's been some time and I lost my notes :( X3 needs to be populated with a 33.868MHz oscillator. R51 is 16 ohm, R52 and R53 are 47K, R57 is 3.9K, R65 is 1K. C71, C73, C95, C96, C97 and C98 are 100nF caps. I think C112 and C113 are 15pF …

Adding OPL3 chip to a soundblaster ct2940

Posted on 2020-12-09, 13:53

Hello, I have a soundblaster ct2940 but unfortunately without the OPL3 and the associated YAMAHA YAC516 chips. I have sourced separately the OPL3 YMF289 and the YAC516 chips and would like to solder them on the board (I'm quite experienced and skilled in that field). However the areas around the …

Re: DosBox Distro - A LiveUSB made simple

It does, but it's unclear what the poster expects them to be relative to; the current working dir on a mounted drive inside DOSBox, the dir DOSBox was launched from, the path to the DOSBox executable, the location of a config file that contains the imgmount commands... The obvious mistake would be …
