Re: HP T5710 windows 98 build

Posted on 2023-04-20, 01:33

I'm not 100% sure about the CHS parameter and the UltraISO has additional disk format as USB-HDD, USB-ZIP option etc. I choose USB-HDD since it's not a zip disk. I've been battling the last few days trying to get my T5710 to boot from a DOS formatted USB key, with ultimately no luck. I have to ask …

Any ideas about this behaviour? Cubic Player / Open Cubic Player - music plays ok, but the screen is jumping like crazy (all modes) :) I got the same behavior, sound plays OK. At bottom of screen there are printed a bunch of messages: trapcli pushf pop ax 0202 0202 isn't it some forgotten …

Please let me know if there is a way to make a small financial donation. For someone who is not that knowledgeable about DOS, I would like recommendations on what games to test. Maybe it is possible to set up a floppy with some shareware games. A methodical testing method is always good. (It's an …

I merge the -x[n] code from your repo and I tested with system shock, it still exited on "not enough memory to make email cursor", weird. I then tested with Quake, the quake banner shows exact free memory according to the -x[n] option on each change of the [n] value, that means the options is …

Settings in pics, except for the one showing that I use 22khz (also tried 44khz, doesn't matter). Looks like you configured Duke3D to use an SB16 but SBEMU to emulate an SB Pro, it needs to be T6 for SB16. @crazii, I checked the SBEMU source and 2 /T mappings are not correct: //T1~T6 maps static …

When writing SBEMU, I have to search & learn documents about SB to make it work. I think Gravis would be the same, I believe the documents/programming guides can be found on the web, but I'm not ready to to that right now. Maybe later when SBEMU is more stable & compatible. It'll be good if you can …

But there are still some glitches, duke3d is crashing some seconds after start of the game, being still in main menu. It's not related to some loading process but time related. If you skip the intro you can enter main menu otherwise it will crash in intro. I didn't got crash on the duke3d intro, …

EDIT: I think it's possible to write a 16bit protected mode wrapper that calls the 32bit TSR as interrupt service: just trapping the same ports and pass the commands, DMA addresses to the 32bit TSR and let it do the actual job. Thus recompilation of the soundcard drivers and OPL3 emulation can be …

It's mainly used for detection of the SB card (not all games uses that), when you send the command to the port, and wait for the IRQ as response, if it happens, then there's a huge possibility that the SB card exist, otherwise there's no SB card exist. That's why Dynablaster had no sound, it cannot …

Good News! With the HP T5530, I fixed the bug for VT833 and now it's working - just overlooked a tiny bug. Tested with a few games all working, except that duke3d will freeze on exit, I don't think it's caused by SBEMU, probably VGA related, but I forgot to verify it without SBEMU, you guys can find …

Any chance you can look into Tyrian? It hates a lot of setups (including mine) for sound. It would be nice to have the option to play it natively. As Baron von Riedesel last checked, it is a 16bit protected mode game that currently not easy to support: https://www.vogons.org/viewtopic.php?p=1142169 …

tercio was using the temp release version that fixes Epic Pinball, did you use that too? I tested the game of ver 2.1, using /t5 and SB Pro in setup, and no problems found on my TP T540p, i7 4710MQ Haswell CPU. I'll do more test later. Epic Pinball worked fine on my HDA. Several versions of SBEMU …

Anyway, I added an optional numeric argument to hdpmi's -x option, working as "right shift" factor, so -x still restricts mem to 256mb, but -x1 changes that to 128mb, -x2 to 64mb and so on... System Shock is happy with -x2. I merge the -x[n] code from your repo and I tested with system shock, it …

I have a Vt8233 in an HP T5520 thin client. I don't get any of the DMA conflict errors, but otherwise similar - MPXPlay works perfectly, but with SBEMU beta 2 no sound at all and with the VT8233FIX build.. Thanks folks! I found no laptop in my local market, I decided to buy a HP T5520 instead. :D …
