@GemCookie, It doesn't appear to be, I can't enable it from the Desktop and I don't see it in the Windows Components or IE Setup.

Windows and HWInfo show IRQ 14 is routed to it, no conflicts anywhere on any devices. This machine used to have an ATI card in there, so maybe it could be a driver thing? Just to clarify, it's perfectly usable and games like Dungeon Keeper seem to run just fine. When I'm finished with day job work, …

Hey all, I have a Windows 95 machine (AST Advantage! 624) with a Pentium 133 and a PCI S3 ViRGE GX. For RAM I have 64MB of FPM and the VGA card has 2MB SGRAM. PCI Bus mastering enabled SIS Chipset 5511 + 5595 Versions: W95 4.00.950 C IE 5 5.00.3314.2101 S3_3.drv 4.10.01.2122-3.42.02 S3VDD2.vxd " " …

Here my test result with a Cyrix 5X86@120 /w 3COM 3C509-B DOS with mFTP and things like netware client or EtherDFS : ~700KiB/s Windows 95 & NT4 and Linux : ~300-400KiB/s MAX, usually less than that. I suspect Full duplex on Windows/Linux does not work with that network card for some reason. I can't …

In pure DOS, using mTCP and spdtest , DE22XPD and 3C90XPD drivers. Having the P233 be the sender and the P120 be the listener, it reaches 8 Mbps (1000 KB/s), Switching places, P120 sender, P233 listener, I get 5.3 Mbps (662.5 KB/s). P120 mTCP FTP download yields 6.82 Mbps (853KB/s), I guess there's …

Quick update, So my machines are all connected using 10Base-T and 100Base-TX. Testing another of my machines which is a P2 233, which has a 3C 3905B-TX (100/FD) using mTCP FTP I get 73 Mbps (9.2 MB/s) with my FTP server. The retro machines are all on the same LAN segment, same switch. My FTP server …

Hi everyone, thanks for your input! With regards to the storage subsystems, The Windows 95 machine has a SCSI Ultra 2 card with a Quantum Atlas V attached, which should be more than capable of sustaining 10 Mbits of writes. Though as for ISA to CPU and then CPU to PCI, maybe there's too much …

Hi everyone, I have two PCs running with 10 Mbps ISA network cards: AST Advantage! 624, Windows 95, Intel P120, D-Link DE-220 ISA card. Epson Endeavor 4DX2-66 L, Windows 3.11 WFW, Cyrix FasCache DX2-V, RTL8019 based card. Both are using 16-bit ISA slots. I have a PureFTPd server configure that is …

Interesting, so when AST got taken over by Samsung they must've changed their domain and rebranded the AST one just before the Asian economy collapsed. I'm sure the team at Ultimate Retro - https://www.ultimateretro.net/en/ - would welcome hi-res photos of your board, plus any info you gather on it, …

For future reference of people looking at this forum

Looking deeper into this, you might be onto something as the BIOS info even states: Advantage! Adventure! 62X System Setup (BCM 561) And there also appears to be support for booting drives from an Add-In card: Hard-Disk Adapter: Choose Built-In for Secondary IDE interface on system board, Add-In to …

You absolute machine! I think you found the right listing, that's the right part number. I searched high and low over the Wayback/IA and got no hits for AST 501974 and combinations of, but I never heard of www.ari-service.com so maybe I overlooked something. If this information is correct, then the …

Hi all, I'm a UK Retro/Vintage computer lover who just won a bid on my childhood computer of the 90s, with it's 100 MHz Pentium, 16MB of RAM (mine was actually a p75 with 8MB so this is an upgrade) and will have it a few days, I think originally my model had the 1.2GB WD Caviar, SiS 6205 VGA chipset …
