Re: VGA Capture Thread

Posted on 2022-01-17, 16:09

In that case, I'd get any sort of scaler that adapts PC resolutions to a modern screen mode like 1080p60, something widely used in the broadcast and film industries that Blackmagic would have a preset for in the capture card settings. You should have plenty of options. I haven't looked too closely …

Trust me, you DON'T want an Intensity Pro if you don't already have one (mine was a freebie). Buy a used Datapath VisionRGB-E1S/E2S off of eBay, or if you can afford it, a Magewell Pro Capture DVI or AIO (they're hard to find used, unlike the HDMI ones, and pricing is very consistent across sellers …

As an aside, I also tested a Blackmagic Design Intensity Pro (non-4K) that I had lying around somewhere, and I almost thought the HDMI port was fried or otherwise broken because I wasn't getting anything but a black screen until I set it to capture the exact input resolution and refresh rate. …

Re: Problems with Geforce 4Ti 4200 on retro build

Why is there even a 1.5v LDO on a 2x AGP slot, I thought those were just 3.3v compatible and not 1.5v like later 4x? according to https://www.ertyu.org/steven_nikkel/agpcompatibility.html (which is about the only thing I can find on AGP compatibility that my smooth brain can comprehend), 1x/2x can …

Windows 98 can work with PCI-E card. Our friend Phil here have made a video about that [ https://youtu.be/abYeIixYrbk ]. But only cards with a driver for it. I had more after that question as I went digging but just left it for verification so I didn't spew a bunch of wrong info as my first draft …

Re: Win 98se PC will only boot to DOS unless in Safe Mode

in DOS
That type of flash memory is built for that kind of usage. SD cards are built to store things like pictures & video, not for random Reads and Writes. As of A-spec SD cards, there are some made to better handle random IOs of the usual software and games (probably thanks to the likes of the Switch, …

Re: Looking to turn an old Pentium 4 Dell into a Win98 gaming rig, but I'm a bit lost on the details.

Didn't Win98SE have issues with clock speeds north of 2GHz? I seem to remember reading something about that on here once before. I have a Northwood core 2.4 GHz P4 machine I'm going to flip to Win98SE when we move and I get it out of storage. It's always been stuck in my head that I'm going to have …

snip The video card is a GeForce 4 MX 440 plugged into the AGP slot on the motherboard. As for the sound card, will I have to do anything to run both soundcards and have them play nice or will I have to swap soundcards based on what game I'm playing? Also, I don't plan on hooking this thing up to …

Re: DOS working mouse

Posted on 2021-10-25, 20:41

I've got a Perixx mouse with PS/2, which they still apparently make new, for like $10 USD. Feels like it moves faster or otherwise feels stranger than using a ball mouse in 98/dos, though, but that might be me either being more used to my modern systems (this was early into my retro dive) or just …
