Re: nvidia on win98 120hz low res modes

Posted on 2023-09-25, 13:23

Have you tried turning off DDC and restarting your computer? On all my CRTs under Windows 98, this was required, at least, to get full access to all non-standard modes and the full range of refresh rates supported by the monitor. Also, in the driver settings, there should be a tab (Something like " …

Update: Everything now works the way it should after lots and lots of trial and error. 56.64 is the best driver to use with a Quadro FX 1000 on win9x and ME, and 1600x900 @ 100Hz with my attached powerstrip parameters make it look perfect. I've installed windows ME as an experiment as I got sick of …

I found another workaround for this problem, which turned out to be more acceptable, at least for my case, (eliminates the need to eliminate the black bar). For this method, DDC must be left enabled. Its essence is to modify the original EDID if it does not contain the necessary user permissions. I …

It is worth making sure that there is no case of forced scaling of 1600x900 to something higher (1600x1200 or 1920x1080)? This can be viewed in "Advanced timing options". PowerStrip can slightly adjust the set values as it sees fit. Sometimes it turned out to be slightly lower than 100 (99, XXX) and …

If "Custom Timing" is selected and the checked operating mode is saved: https://s20.directupload.net/images/230906/8tm6yq7g.png then it will be applied every time you start PowerStrip (By default, it is registered in autoload). Up to this point, the screen may be black. If WINDOWS was not completed …

In technical terms, it is certainly easier to use a VGA-> HDMI converter, such as OSSC or a cheap Chinese one. They have a minimum of problems. However, the picture quality leaves much to be desired. You will not get a high-quality picture with any of them. Compared to native HDMI \ DVI, this is …

You need to disable DDC in the registry and create custom permissions via PowerStrip. [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\Services\Class\Display\0000\DEFAULT] "DDC"="0" This will shift the scaling options to the monitor. The video card will not try to scale the resolution to a higher …

If you need the XPDM driver, try earlier versions for XP. In addition, try through the device manager item "Install an old device". If you need standard device performance, it's easier to install drivers from Windows Vista: https://www.nvidia.com/download/driverResults.aspx/2/en-us/ Or earlier …

Re: How to run Porsche Unleashed in 1080p?

in Windows
If my memory serves me, high resolutions are not available there, because the first ones in the list of all available ones are taken. And there is a limit. Accordingly, if 1080p does not fit into this list, it will not be selected in the game. To check this, you can try to remove all low resolutions …

Is the driver unable to achieve the desired result through OpenGL? I don't know about high resolutions with it as I prefer low resolutions for this game, but performance was better with it. I don't remember how to add permissions through nGlide.

I had exactly the same idea but with Windows XP and 98. Connect both cards to one monitor. So that FX 5500 would output the image when 98 starts but 750 Ti when it comes to XP. Is this feasible? Easy. I did this and it worked. It is selected in the FX5500 BIOS as the main one (For the needs of …

So, it seems to me that it is more worth warning about the virus danger to those who are going to install Windows 10 than to those who want to use 9x in 2023... When no one has been optimizing viruses for 9x for a long time, but under Windows 10 - in first of all, because this is now the main target …

For educational purposes, I tried to run some of the latest high-profile viruses in a virtual machine and on Windows XP some of them still somehow worked, on Windows 7 almost everything worked, and on Windows 98 none of them (At least without KernelEx, which is disabled by default). Giving errors, …

Good luck with the matters of security on this machine... And what, at least one modern virus will work under Windows 9x\Me? I highly doubt it. They are now written more likely under Windows 10 \ 11, well, 7 maximum, even XP is already in doubt. And in Windows 98 you will get something like "There …
