Return to Zork runs in DOS (but freezes with disc read errors both on a burned disc and on the original.) I didn't play enough Dragon's Lair to test it for sure, but it at least runs. I'll try The Horde and The Psychotron within the next few days, as well, and report back.

Finally got this thing to work! After a ton of digging, I found these drivers, and now it functions as it should. 😁

Couldn't see anything displaying the model number on boot, so I switched to my 98 SE drive and it appears to not show up in Device Manager at all. (I haven't tried installing ReelMagic drivers there. Only on my 6.22/3.1 drive.) On eBay it was listed as "Sigma Designs 53-000417 RealMagic 16-Bit ISA …

The drivers load up well and test.bat runs fine. I can load up MPEGs in it just fine as well, only the video doesn't show. Instead, the window is solid pink, and yeah. This card is the same as the first one. EDIT: Totally forgot to mention I tried those drivers and it quit out almost immediately …

Sadly, it's still not working for me. Right now, I've got it so everything appears to be in working order except that the videos show absolutely nothing. The audio plays now, but the video is blank. I honestly think that if you have one of the newer ones that uses the VGA passthrough instead of the …

ReelMagic EM7011 woes continued. I'm beginning to think the hardware side ISN'T done. I simply CANNOT get this thing to play MPEG video at all. The latter two versions of the drivers initialize the card fine upon boot, the card is recognized and games will start up. Once any game gets to where any …

I've confirmed that the sound card has nothing to do with it. A fresh install of MS-DOS 6.22 with sound drivers on or off allows the ReelMagic drivers to detect the card and install the drivers just fine. I can change the port, IRQ, and DMA for the MPEG playback in the setup utility, but no …

I gotcha. I came into computers with a 486 but didn't start getting heavy into hardware and such until Socket A boards. :P Anyway, I've disabled everything I'm not using and tried forcing other IRQ/DMA's to Legacy ISA. Still nothing. The card has no jumpers (I wish it *did* at this point) and this …

Thanks for the tip regarding core IRQ's! It didn't help me in this instance, but this will likely prove to be valuable knowledge in the future. I tried disabling the COM and LPT ports in the BIOS and setting their IRQ's (3,4,7) to Legacy ISA. Exact same problem. Still haven't gotten another PSU to …

Hi, all. It's been ages since I've dealt with hardware of this age, and I'm remembering just how frustrating the transition to Plug and Pray really was. :P I have an Epox MVP3G-M board with the only ISA card installed being this ReelMagic EM7011 MPEG decoder card. I have the VGA passthrough and all …
