Re: Best sound Blaster to go with a Wave Blaster 2?
Posted on 2017-03-17, 02:39
Since you have a CT2290, which is a great card, why not try a nice clone like somethng AudioDrive or Crystal based? From there you'll get stuck in a loop of comparing audio quality and compatibility, and before you know it you'll have a large plastic tub in your shed filled with sound cards. That's …

couldnt find any either; out of curiosity: where do these exotic expectations come from? The IBM one came from a handful of ps/2 models. So far ive found 6 that had the option. Of course not all them even came with one. The other application is a Sharp x68000 computer from japan. I received a few …

Im in a bit of a predicament. I need to find slim 5.25 drives that support electronic eject for a certain project, but I only find IBM 64F4102 drives. I really dont want to spend a ton of money, and i dont want to eat into the supply of such an uncommon drive as well. Does anyone here know of any …

Re: Could find a Macintosh matching these qualities for me?

Any powerpc mac (G5 and below) wont be able to support a lot of current websites due to browsers not being updated in a long time. If that matters then the first intel mac pro desktop, or a mac mini would be nice.

Can a crappy Avance Logic ISA sound card "draw too much current" and the PSU can't handle it ? Because that's the only actual thing I did... I just added an ISA sound card to "level this PC up and get rid of that noisy PC speaker once for all"... but I can't think it's the cause... after all why …

I am pretty sure at least some of the evergreens do have the ODP pin. http://ec1.images-amazon.com/media/i3d/01/A/man-migrate/MANUAL000017863.pdf This manual specifically mentions the 169 pin overdrive socket. Did you set the jumper accordingly? Also, try setting the multiplier to 3X. Some older …

So the evergreen does not allow the system to post. I think this is because the evergreen has no ODP pin.

You don't have to do a full format, do a Quick format. Use Win98SE as boot disk to dos w/CD-ROM suuport, and run fdisk to partition with FAT32, then quick format. All is on the bootable Win98SE disk, I think in the WIN98 folder on the disk. Once the disk is properly partitioned (if you want) for …
