I like my radeon 7500 pci, it has dv and vga and can do dual monitor. There are a few quad monitor units also. I think even a 8 monitor unit. Though it uses weird connectors. I’ve tried a loooot of pci cards and this 7500 is by far the best one I’ve tried. Fastest, least amount of issues. Thanks …

Thanks mate for replying. Sorry, I should have been a bit more specific. Primary use: Programming Win 3.x / DOS using dual monitors. Maybe games, but nothing special. I am not really interested in games. I think the only game I ever played back in the 1990's the most was X-Wing. But anyway, I have a …

Hi, I am trying to find a Dual Head PCI card. There seems to be plenty of PCI-e. Do they even exist? I thought there was one with Dual DVI connections, but I can't find it or remember the brand. Cheers, Craig

Hi, Inside the Windows 95 Plus box was a subscription for the "Inside Microsoft windows 95" by Cobb group. Does anyone have a link to the PDF's, if they exist? I was hoping for something like Inside DOS: https://archive.org/details/inside-dos-tips-techniques-for-ms-dos-and-pc-dos-journal-magazine- …

Thanks mate. I just bought a Dell D-Dock PD01X Expansion Station. I think it will work. I didn't even know that they existed! From what I understand, they used to be $475. Happily I only paid $40.

Hi, I was wondering if it was possible to get more than VGA in Windows 3.11? I have the XGA+ LCD panel, but I can't seem to find the correct driver. Regards, Craig
Re: Process Explorer or Similar for Win 3.x
Posted on 2022-05-05, 00:44
I have been kicking around the idea of writing something, in a basic form, like process explorer for Win 3.x. But at the moment I have been tied down with other work. That's why I was asking about process explorer for Win 3.x, I didn't want to re-invent the wheel. But bottom line, it will be a …

Thanks for the link. Yea, ProView is interesting. https://archive.org/details/WPV12_ZIP It is so strange to be from the era of Win 3.1, yet not to know about useful software. I feel like I must have been living under a rock. I suppose the Internet can be thanked for the exposure of knowledge.

I found a shareware program called "Hogs" or "Memory Hogs" by Kamyan Software which doesn't show addresses, but shows total memory usage for each module, sorted from highest to lowest. The list of modules seems to include drivers, and also down the bottom it has fonts which take up 0.2KB each. If …
Has anyone done Board level repair on Dell D505 boards?
Posted on 2022-02-04, 00:47
Hi, I was wondering if anyone had done board level repair on the Dell D505 motherboards? The problem with the motherboard is, it will charge on the Pro1X docking station, but will not charge or run disconnected from the PRO1X & PA-10 PS, using just the PA-10 or PA-12 power supply. Has anyone done …

Hi, Can someone please recommend a MB with hardware pass-thru and virtualization (IOMMU and VT-x / AMD-V.) Something maybe 2 or 3 years old. Also, what hardware are you passing through to the VM and which VM software are you using? My primary use is programming (Assembly and C/C++) and system …

Cool, thank you, I didn't know that. So is there something that will display it in a graphical sense? Or is it time to just sit down and get comfortable with something like debug?

Hi, I am trying to find a program that will run in Win 3.x that will show the processes running and the location in memory. Is there such a thing? I can only find version 10.6 of Process Explorer (is there earlier version somewhere?) and Enhanced Task Managers seem to just show programs running. On …
Re: Looking for Microsoft Systems Journal Pdf/Text/physical copies

Sorry I should have mentioned the "Wayback machine". The late 80's journals are missing, there is just the code. There are some text versions of the journals in the "Microsoft Developer Network" CD's on the Internet Archive. It would be nice to have the PDF version, text of the articles is ok. The …

I see on ebay at the moment there are …
DR DOS 6.0 CDROM driver
Posted on 2021-12-19, 05:33
Hi, In DRDOS 7.0 there is nwcdex.exe, but there doesn't seem to be a similar file in DRDOS 6.0. I never really used this version, and the manuals seem to be a bit difficult to locate online. Do I just use mscdex.exe? And oakcdrom.sys. Regards, Craig
Is there a Win 95 Internals book?
Posted on 2021-12-15, 08:31
Hi, So I have been enjoying Undocumented DOS and learning more about DOS. Along with a few surprises, I thought I was ok at DOS, but it appears that I knew "3 parts of bugger all" (Aussie slang for not knowing much at all.) Then it occurred to me that I don't have a Windows 95 Internals book. Is …

Hi, So with all the BS going on in the world, I am very happy to have a Pentium 3 running Windows 95/VS6.0/MASM. Just need MP4's and MP3's sorted and it should be just that little bit better.
