UPDATE -- It's been a little bit of time since I posted, so I figured I'd add to this thread: I could not get it to work. It's fine though; since my SB16 decided to finally start -working- again, and I've kept with that instead. I've kept to the Sound Blaster, and put the other card away into …

I think, to be honest, this joystick would be better on a Win95 machine with a slower CPU - I picked up a Baby AT PC with an ASUS P5A-B rev1.05 and Pentium MMX 200, which I intend to make my Win95 machine. The same machine came with an ATI Rage IIc, but that's getting pulled, and I plan on putting …

Update Note: I did test the card, and while it works, it doesn't work "well", for whatever reason -- Any time I use the Cirrus Logic Drivers (VOGONs library), it gives me a corrupted screen when loading into Win 3.1, so I'm wondering if the card is, in fact, corrupted in some way. Again, I'll be …

Haven't had luck with current posts talking about this issue, so I'm going to go ahead and make a new topic for this. Sorry for retreading ground, if I've missed a post somewhere. I just picked up a SideWinder 3D Pro (Gamepad Port version), and have been going through the mess of getting it to …

For my Win95/98 PC, running a 1000mhz PIII, all these drivers seemed to work. Ended up using the July '95 drivers for the Win95 partition. Right now I'm trying to figure out if it's the physical hardware or a possible software issue that's causing a slight drift in the down-right direction on the …

Have you had to deal with "drifting" with these controllers? And if "yes", have you had to open it up fully to fix said problem?

Also check this http://www.vogonsdrivers.com/getfile.php?fileid=792 I looked at this one already, and it didn't look like it had the Win3.x drivers, just the Win95 ones (unless those work with Win3.x, then I suppose that's just me wrongly assuming that the drivers wouldn't be compatible). Feel free …

Update: While I could get the system to accept the audio drivers without any problems for both DOS and Win3.x, the big issue was that I couldn't get my Mitsumi-Quad CD-ROM working with it (I have to go through the soundcard since the mainboard doesn't have an IDE slot for it) -- Even when using the …

Worth a shot! Will post a status update once I get through this - looks like there's some additional steps to it than what I'm used to messing with

I've seen an older post asking around for similar drivers, but either the links were removed, or linked to a German page that I didn't have the credentials for, since it only allows you to download via FTP and I don't have an account or log-in for it (guess people need to sign up? Eh... ) I also …

It is (very briefly) documented on page 2 here: https://psref.lenovo.com/syspool/Sys/PDF/withdrawnbook/vpbook.pdf The onboard is ISA, but it's an ET4000 w/ 1MB already. Are you sure you need to upgrade it? I missed the ET4000 1MB on-board video chip, which is certainly my bad. If that's the case, …

Also, as a consolation prize, the CL-GD5420 could go into your future 386 build as I suspect nothing is wrong with it other than the conflict between onboard and ISA VGA card :D I mean, as long as the money wasn't wasted (regardless of bargain prices paid to acquire it), it's all good! If I can …

Usually boards from this era require you to disable the onboard graphics (by changing a jumper or DIP switch) before using a separate card. Otherwise it will always try to initialize the onboard video BIOS first. Are you sure the onboard graphics isn't local bus? If that's the case, it should be …

You should replace electrolytic and tantalum caps all together. Keep in mind that any of the five (memory and the processor) chips can also be the cause. Last month, I purchased a Trident 9680 and one of the tantalum caps short the +5V to the ground immediately after I turned on the power supply. …

For one thing, this card and many others from this generation have tantalum caps which can be gone bad by now. And as for "fully tested" maybe the seller just put the card on a working computer and it displays the boot screen. Done, it’s working. Would there be any good way to test it directly? To …

I picked up an old IBM ValuePoint 433DX about a month ago, and have been slowly upgrading it here and there (CF-to-IDE for HDD, Dos 622 and Win3.11, AMD 486DX2-66, etc.) Sadly, no VESA support on the board, since it's a Model 6384 MoBo. I'd love to replace it someday with a later board and a VLB …
