Small VGA-CRT-Monitor that can display 31khz/50hz?

Posted on 2016-04-06, 10:17

Just simply because I have no other choice :) My board has 66Mhz with Slot1. The maximum is 533 with Slot/370 Adapter, but I choose the fastest Slot-Celeron because of more cooling choices. But I have to admit, that the Celeron-433 is far better then the PII-333 and also much better then the K6-III …

Current-Setup: A2K A2286/8 ISA16 - VGA ET4K ISA16 - CT2910 ISA16 - MPU401i Currently no efficient HDD-Storage available. Perhaps changing the Soundcard could help (ESS with prim.

But I get access to it with the startet diskmanager. I think the only missing thing at startup is the ontrackd.sys driver with the proper options, but it fails to install.

Argh, I didn't get it, but why? I boot a from a small Hardfile (2MB). I put a ct2910 in the A2000 and configured IDE IRQ15 and IDE-Secondary. The A2286 Bios is still Harddrive: NONE / NONE. When I start the Ontrack DiskManager 9.57 from floppy two drives were detected! One is the Hardfile and the …

Sometimes old Dosgames run better on faster Machines like PII above 300 Mhz when started under running Win9x. Check this please. I am pretty sure that they will run.

No, not all cards with integrated ramdacs support true/high colour. It was a feature that initially appeared on cheap low end cards. I think support for 15/16/24-bit started appearing on VGA cards in the early 90s. Perhaps 1991 or so. I know the VGAWonder XL was the first card from ATi to do it. …
