Re: Newly made Gravis Ultrasound compatible cards ... what's the degree of interest?

On the other hand I've had faked/relabeled ICs which are worth less than 0.20€ as originals. I've also seen all sorts of those: from some very cheap ROMs labeled to show more well known brands (becoming obvious on the ID check while programming), over more expensive and fake MAX232 which ended …

shock__ wrote on 2021-02-20, 09:56: AKC reports as Revision C Awesome, thanks for checking it! So, as much as it's no real answer for why they went for all that remarking work, there really is a working way to check the internal revision.

Getting the revision data is not enough in this case right? Because Impulse Tracker displays the revision data. From the Impulse Tracker source: Again, thanks for this hint: The relabled and original ICs both do report a "Revision B" in Impulse Tracker for the KC-version. Now it would just be …

Getting the revision data is not enough in this case right? Because Impulse Tracker displays the revision data. From the Impulse Tracker source: Thanks for the hint, I'll still try my cards and see what they show. I just don't have any verified AKC variant to compare (since even the original PnP …

Just out of interest ... where did you get them and (if you want to disclose) how much did you pay? While I still have about 400 chips in stock might be good to know what the future market looks like. Odd how/why they're relabeled ... considering the datecode remained identical. Indeed, it's odd, I …

Is there a way to read out the version of the interwave (KC vs AKC)? I can't remember ever reading about a way, so far. Reason being: I definitely got a batch of rebadged ICs, which are all marked as the KC version and which are all running fine. I'm just curious if they are remarked AKC, because …

If you're still interested (I only just ran across this thread right now), here are the jumpoers on my UB433-DAVE, which are working for a 486-DX2 (non-enhanced), so they should probably be working for the DX, too (please ignore the am5x86, I was just testing with that and it ends up doing the same …

Perfect! It fixed loading that file and Gravis works again also, thanks! Oh, and I did send the SB-testing version to my colleague yesterday also, to report back with the startup screen - even though it's working by now. That was mostly for curiosity's sake 😀)

On another note: Does this one crash modm on your system also? https://modarchive.org/index.php?request=view … eid&query=74373 b24 and b19 went down with UMB or DOS MEM corrupted on two different 486DX systems just now. Dosbox hangs on loading, without any error message.

Also, the .CFG file may be different, you need to remove it when you move from b19 to b24 Darn, I knew about that and really thought we did it (while trying to figure out an issue with unisound and this ESS) - but on explicitly testing it again now, it instantly fixed the issue. So, please: cancel …

b24 also seems to have a regression with ESS1868F (ESS Audiodrive). Initialized with its own driver (and escfg), it works nicely under b19 - but starting b24, it isn't detected anymore as a (Soundblaster) compatible card. Going back to b19 right afterwards, it still works there.

Been using unisound successfully for quite a while now.

Bought this recently for the processor and adapter that came with it, not for the card itself. Does anyone have an idea which system this card might have come from? I already went through lots of DELL, HP and Compaq baords on stason, elhvb and others, but found nothing where it could fit. Looking …

I've also tested it now with an original PnP in the same and also in a different system with a completely different setup (first one being a 486DX2-66, the second one a PII-266, albeit with caching disabled since it otherwise throws the well know runtime error 200): modmgt behaves the same …
