Well i swapped the Ti for a Geforce2 MX and the conflict disappeared. No idea why the Ti doesnt work but looks like ill be using the MX for win98 gaming.

CT4830 vs SB0220
Posted on 2021-10-11, 12:55
Which one of these would be best for win98? From i read both are sound blaster live cards, but the SB0220 is Dell OEM. Should i just go for the CT4830 in that case and avoid the dell?

Nice, is it just any old cardboard? Not "old" cardboard. I took some then-new pieces of the same size (35x25x15cm) which I found convenient for my storage. This was way cheaper and better suitable than any other box storage systems I knew of. I am using these boxes for years now and am very …

Nice, is it just any old cardboard? Also not sure about the bubble wrap but i know it said anti static on it. Do i run danger of static build up in the drawer at all?

Had some time to kill today and came up with this. Put a layer of anti static wrap on the bottom, wrapped a few wood pieces with anti static wrap and screwed them in the drawer, then slot some cards. Any downsides to storing cards on their sides? So far ive usually just lay them down flat. https:// …

Re: Are the PCI slots dead on my PC?
Posted on 2021-10-04, 02:03
No, 99.9% it's the capacitors. They are brown Chemi-cons from around 10-15 years ago, which means they are probably KZG or KZJ series, which is a problematic series known to fail early, especially if they are near heat sources. A closer picture of the caps should be enough to confirm that. In any …
