Re: Dell Dimension XPS D333

Good to see another Dell with the "evil" ATX connecter still getting some love. as they are actually nice PC's I was going to make mine the "ultimate" Win3x PC, but practicality got the better of me and I stuck with Win98 I'm not sure what the original keyboard for these was, but I have a white Dell …

Re: Microsoft (Bill Gates) strikes again!

I watched something on youtube about this. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FaoJErxYLtM Lundgren left a comment on, basically he admits something along the lines of he was wrong printing the logo. However that's copyright not piracy which is what he's jailed for in part. However if this brings the …

Re: Packard Bell Club... what to do!

I'd also say killer Dos PC. The good thing is you can test how this works with the currant OS, just boot it back to dos mode. the Voodoo would be a good fit as it'll play any dos glide games REALLY well. Re OS, While the system could haply handle WIn98 SE, If you already have that on another PC then …

Re: A fast 486 that isn't (a 486)

Cant have a POD lying around doing nothing can you! AWE64 is probably good match really, Games that want adlib sound are better off with one of your slower PC's anyway and its always fun to compare OPL to CQM just like AWE to GM. I grabbed a simmconn adapter for my AWE64 value as well when I found …

Re: 5.1 Surround Sound gaming and Win98SE

I tried earlier this year with Logitech Z-5500 speakers and Audigy 2 ZS card in both Win98 and XP as well as a X-Fi Titanium in XP and was surprised how not straight forward it was. From memory it was not possible with digital connections, only analogue at least with those cards.
