USB Keyboard driver for DOS 6.22? (Maybe mouse too?)
Posted on Yesterday, 20:25
My PS/2 to USB keyboard and mouse converter seems to have stopped working. My motherboard has a USB 1.x header, but is there a driver to use those USB inputs in DOS?
Re: How to share folder(s) from DOS 6.22, Win 3.11, and 98SE with Windows 10 over a network?
Posted on 2024-04-26, 22:27
There are also FTP clients available for DOS & Win 3.1, but it sounded like you were using a client with multiple operating systems (DOS/Win3.1/Win98). So, download the files with Win98 and then move them to the DOS/Win 3.1 partition/Hard-Drive afterward. That's more convenient and faster. However, …

I have shared a folder on my Windows 11 PC via FTP using Filezilla. On the retro PCs, either the Filezilla Client or Total Commander is installed to download the data. I mainly do this under Win9x and then move the data from there to the DOS/Win 3.1 partition when needed. Here is a good tutorial on …
How to tell if a CF card supports TRIM? Which TRIM program for DOS?
Posted on 2024-04-26, 19:36
I've read that some "high end" CF Cards support TRIM, but is there a way to know if mine do before installing? Also I'm seeing two DOS TRIM programs online, is it better to use RLOEWE's utility or DOSFSTRIM?

I'm going to be setting up my newly rebuilt retro PC over the weekend, and I'd like to save on physical media if possible. Is there a way to share a folder over the network in the above three vintage OSes that allows me to copy and paste to them from Windows 10?

Is the nVidia Riva TNT2 Final driver in the library here compatible with the Ultra versions of the card?

Well, I DO want the DOS games to run well, so I'll cave and use a VGA port. Do you guys think I'd be better off with a Riva128, or a TNT2? If I should go the TNT2 route, should I splurge on a Pro or Ultra variant?
Re: AM3 and NVME...

Part of the issue could be that you're benchmarking the C drive, Windows could have been doing other things while the benchmark was running. Check whether there's an updated motherboard BIOS available, it may add better compatibility with NVME drives. Another thing you can try is updating the SSD's …

Fastest SD card converter for IDE interface?

Does anybody know a good IDE to SD (or CF to SD) adapter that can use a V90 SD card at the full 90MB/s rating? The fastest CF cards have too much capacity for the operating systems I plan to install, and they're expensive. However, it appears non-PCI Express-based SD cards can go up to 90MB/s, and …

Suppose I didn't use 3.1 and stuck with DOS and 98SE, would DVI and DOS drivers still be an issue? And what cards even had DVI in the late 90's? I'm only seeing two options for TNT2s and I'd either have to import it or pay a lot more.
