Yes that's right. It can also record/sequens MIDI if I understand correctly. Thanks! I have no understanding what "sequencing" means or does but you saved this piece of italian hardware from certain disassembling and part scavenging from my side. I have limited understanding of MIDI and/or audio …

Looks like a MIDI sequenser and file player. The ripped off Rolands early Sound Canvas design and would work like a Roland Sound Brush. Cool! Thanks Kamerat! I read up on the SB-55 and if I understand correctly the function of a sound brush(er), it plays the .mid files from floppy disks outputting …

A while back I picked this device up, it was about to be trashed. It has been laying in my untested pile of hardware for some time. I actually have no idea what it is, here are some pictures. I'm not really a midi expert. Also, I can not find much on the internet what exactly its used for and how …

@keenmaster486: I use normal AUTOEXEC.BAT and CONFIG.SYS, no different than back in the 90s. The only thing I've done differently recently is HIMEMX :) @derSlammler: yeah, it's a Biostar M7VIG 400. It has the IDE stuff and I checked the settings, made sure secondary is enabled, UDMA is enabled, etc …

I had somewhat similar problem just recently, while i'm on Windows ME though. I formatted a FAT32 partition 100gb from within ME and it refused to be used in dos while working fine from within Windows environment. It was also identified in DOS fdisk but gave something like "Invalid drive …

Tried to get some more network speed out of my WinME build, P4EE, 875P, Intel Pro 1000CT and C400 SSD. Before it did top out around 5-6 MB/s on my GbE home network when pushing data to it and when pulling data from it, 10-11 MB/s. I'm doing most of my cd-rom image archiving on that computer so some …

Installed a second generation black APC SMART-UPS 750VA from 2007 to my win9x build, changed battery to some no-name brand (the old ones were deformed to unrecognition and it was a challenge to get them out of the ups case, also i think this model is overcharging and slowly cooking the batteries.

Nice system, and for free, i'm envious. When system hangs during "checking for the hardware..." part, it's usually because of ACPI problems. Try installing windows 9x with the /p i switch to disable ACPI, or check your bios to disable ACPI (not always available on all models) and/or update your bios …

And not only in matter of speed, but when I use my flashdrive via USB on that Windows 98 PC, when I open any MIDI file or I rename some folder, explorer crashes, while from network (same flashdrive shared through my main PC right now) it works fine. Good that you have worked-around that problem, …

oh, I'm sorry, depending also which version of windows 10 you have, you also need to activate SMBv1 as it was disabled by default on fall creators update. Sorry for forgetting to mention that. https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/help/4034314/smbv1-is-not-installed-windows-10-and-windows-server- …

In relation to windows 7-10 smb? I wouldn't know, but logic says it should apply. Perhaps someone knows more about win3x <> windows 10/8.1 than me.

Heya, This one is still good to use, even though it's for windows 8.1 http://www.philscomputerlab.com/windows-98-networking.html In short, you can't use "Network Resources" in windows 9x, instead you need to either map the network location as a drive or use start>run \\ip.adressordns\ to your shared …

Interesting how this does not happen with my 430TX K6-2 system, though. Perhaps, but the bug was never really disclosed by Microsoft, nor fixed. Who knows how it really works. I can tell you though, sooner or later, it always happens for me. Not all file operations triggers it, but most of them do. …
