The weird thing is Tomb Raider 1 (in DOS) had the same problem and I needed to set up certain environmental variables in DOS to get it to work correctly, but that hardly seems like the right thing to do in Win'95. Wait, if you need to set up environmental variables in DOS, then you need to set the …

On the other hand I'm getting tired of sellers waiting for MY positive feedback before they give me positive feedback. I definitely share your sentiments here. In fact, there was a seller who did not leave me any feedback at all , despite I made the payment very quickly, left him a positive …

Wait, Voodoo5 5500 Macs have DVI-D Dual Link connector (the fourth connector from above; see the pic below), so it is supposed to be okay, isn't it?

I don't think it helps the actual smoothing at all. It's also useless for those of us using DVI-only on both ends. Well I don't think it helps the smoothing either, but if it really change your video card's output to any resolution you want (without smoothing, of course), including the native …

And while we're at it, I'm also very interested in DOSBOX's up-sampling function (SuperEagle, 2XNormal, 2XSAI, etc). I mean, if your CPU and video card can take it, then you can up-sample that 320x200 resolution to higher resolution while making them smooth. How feasible it is to "hardwire" such …

Can't each MIDI device be configured to use different port? For instance, 330 for CM-32L and 300 for SCC-1A. I think you should be able to use command line to configure those parameters, similar to SET BLASTER when using Sound Blaster cards. As for DOS games, you can usually choose which MIDI port …
