I just wish that someone would make an N64 clone with HDMI output. By far the best HDMI solution currently available for the N64 is the UltraHDMI, which stopped production a couple of years ago, and scalpers are now selling them for ridiculous prices (I saw one for almost $1,500). Lesser solutions …

When you flash a BIOS, settings can be restored to defaults. The -15 in the name can mean 15ns, go through the BIOS and see if there is anywhere to set that. It also looks like you have 256KB of cache as you have 4x512Kb and the 256Kb may be a parity chip.

I'm not very knowledgeable on sound cards so please excuse me for asking again: I always thought Aureal Vortex 1+2 drivers only supported EAX 1.0 in software and EAX 3/4/5 was only ever supported by Creative cards with no wrappers/emulation avaliable. I'm really not trying to be a dick here if …

Good thing you got it working and thanks for sharing your solution!👍 Btw you mention you're getting A3D 2.0 + EAX 4.0; does the Live! support EAX 4.0 after all? Doh, thanks for the catch. I've been looking at 98 cards too much and the 4.0 on an Audigy 2 was stuck in my head along with the A3D …

I know it's old, but thanks for this post. It verified what was going on and it got me over the final hurdle in the project I was attempting. I'm using an SB0010 which came with an SB Live 5.1 and it has a different jumper layout. JP10 is the jumper for SPDIF #1 JP08 is a set of jumpers that goes to …

Reviewing the linked page about the MX25, at the very bottom is a comment about the MX300 and that the reference 2048 drivers randomly for some hardware won't output SPDIF for all audio. The DVD Player will output over SPDIF, but other audio will not. I looked through a bunch of other Aureal driver …

I think you might want to try setting one or both of these registry keys to 1 and rebooting . ; Turn on/off the Digital Out support HKLM,"Software\Aureal\Vortex\AU8830\Customization","SupportDigitalOut",0x00010001,1,0,0,0 ; DWORD Value: 1 - on, 0 - off ; Set default state of Digital Out HKLM," …

Try another set I was using the 2048 reference, but I just tried 2041 reference and the Diamond Monster Sound II 1.02beta drivers. Neither the 2041 nor 1,02beta reference digital out in their control apps. And I'm not getting …

Has anyone successfully gotten SPDIF Out from the MX-300? The linked site above says pin 18 is SDIF out with pin 17 being a ground pin. I tried connecting these to the aux connectors of a SB Live Drive as well as the Digital CD SPDIF connector on the SB Live and I'm not getting data on either. In …

Look in this thread https://www.vogons.org/viewtopic.php?f=62&t=77095 . There is a link there that you will probably need to run through a translator, unless you happen to know the language, that shows which pins carry S/PDIF . Thanks, I must have been searching for just mx-300 which didn't match …

Does anyone have the pin-out for the MX-Link connector on a Diamond Monster Sound MX-300? There was an add-on board called the MX-25 that provided SPDIF and some other connectors on it. I've tried searching but so far haven't been able to turn up anything. My hair-brained scheme is trying to connect …

Think about either an SD or CompactFlash to IDE adapter rather than an HDD. Once you have them partitioned and formatted, you can easily plug them into a modern PC to move files around. You'll lose out on noisy and the slow speeds of old HDDs if you really want the retro experience. For PSU, get an …
