I'm sorry but I cannot understand, can you explain me why? Radeon 7000 and radeon 9250 expecially are more powerful video card and have a lot of vram more than the banshee. Expecially the radeon 9250 has 4pixel shaders, 4 TMUs and 4 ROPs when the banshee has only 1? And expecially the radeon 9250 is …

Hi there, dears Very Old Gamers On New Systems, I really appreciate this forum and I have learned a lot here. Some weeks ago I begun with a nice mission to revive a very old DOS/Windows system and finally I accomplished it! I'm the guy that have a Nforce 2 chipset in the other system and I wanted to …

Yep, that is a great set of hardware biessea. Now, you can get an ATX to AT converter cable from ebay. These I find work perfectly well with decent quality low endish ATX PSUs, especially if you can find something a little older than current designs. There is a lot of handwaving about the lack of …

It is never a waste spending $5 on a vortex 2. It won't be any good for MS-DOS gaming on an nForce based board, but the vertex 2 is still a very good sound card. Ok so I will use one day for a audio card in a Windows based gaming PC. Thanks, perhaps I will build a very old PC for DOS cause a friend …

So I have to retire about that, I understand. Maybe on day I can do this, but not now, I want to stay in this beautiful nforce2 chipset with my beautiful Asus system (switched from the great Abit nf7 1.2 motherboard only to olay with gameport). Now I have just bought here an Aureal Vortex 2, for …

Does your integrated soundcard have a decent FM Synthesis though? The Vortex2 lets you play (acceptable) SB Pro compatible music for DOS games under Win9x, so that's still something. I don't know... The only thing that I need is to use this vortex2 under real dos... I have an hard disk with dos and …

Hey there, I found the Turtle Beach form a user that want to sell it. The exact chip number is this one : au8830a2 So this is a Vortex 2 sound card. Is this possible to make it work with my Nforce2 chipset on my Asus a7n8x deluxe? Doesn't matter about gameport cause I have the bracket directly …

biessea: I don't want to be rude or something like that, but why are you so fixed on nForce boards? You're obviously not using SLI config with those, and they're otherwise notoriously hostile for retro (or rather DOS) purposes. Again, as LSS10999 mentioned, there aren't any legacy capabilities …

Oh cmon, and if I simply use the integrated audio card by enabling legacy mode on bios? Can I use the audio integrate in Dos? This motherboard have the Realtek ALC650 AC'97 audio codec. If such thing would be working we would be elsewhere.. There is no such thing like Realtek official driver for …

We dont have too much info about nforce 2 and where we have it usually dont working regarding of Nvidia no legacy MB history its not suprise it probably worst retro chipset for DOS, so change MB than sound card make more sense. Nvidia chipsets where good for intergrated graphics - now obsolete and …

I just bought an Aureal Vortex with chip AU88x0 that someone said that it can works through dos, but I really hope that gameport can work too, this is the main objective for me.
