Re: Power Adapter for Roland CM-500

Also, if you have an old Sega Genesis laying around, the AC adapters that came with them are the same spec and physical plug dimensions as Roland's. I came across that one by luck and know that it works. 😮

I had gone through some of the same academic exercises to build a similar box a couple of years ago, but never followed through with sourcing all the parts. I, for one, would love to see the parts list... then head to the local Fry's to start of my own!

If so... 🙁 Didn't there used to be an old CVS or branch of code that had CanadaCow's MT-32 emulation in the build? At the very worst you can use MUNT and point DOSbox to it... assuming you have the MT-32 ROM …

[quote="kneedragger37"]98 seemed the natural choice, but with Tualatin, maybe XP's the way to go? Who's got OS suggestions?/quote] I have XP SP2 on my Tualatin. In fact, it ran in many respects faster than a P4-2.8 I used to have and easily smokes older Willamette-based P4's... but that's not much …

I'd dig around for a Tualatin-compatible i815-based board. I agree with Swaaye. I have a Asus TUSL/2 motherboard with a Tualatin 1.4Ghz chip in it, and it's rock solid. But it will also handle any Socket370 Pentium3. It has served me well. You should be able to find the TUSL/2 just by searching …

Quandary... Which PC's to Part With

Posted on 2007-07-28, 20:48

I know... I know. It's been forever since I've posted last. New Job... First child on the way, etc... life moves fast. Which now finds me in a quandary. We need more room. I'm working a lot and I'm not really using my old rigs anymore. I need to part with some, if not most.. Don't want to, but I …

NIC - For when you need to connect to the Internet. Still trying to figure out how to network with an XP machine. Are you talking about file sharing, GH? If so, Linux SaMBa implementations of windows file sharing are accessible by both Windows XP/2000 and Win9x clients. That's how I get files to …

MUNT Graphical MT-32 Display?

Posted on 2006-11-09, 19:50

in MT-32 General
I'm playing catch up because I've been out of the loop for a while... But whatever ever happened to the graphical display of a MT-32 that was to be built into MUNT including a working LED display? I remember seeing a screen shot for it here, too! I remember there were some concerns about copyrights …

Re: CPU Dependent Mouse Problem

Posted on 2006-06-17, 04:20

in PC Emulation
How would the manual vs. auto IRQ assignments for the COM ports create a difference between the mouse working with CPU's of different speeds. In all circumstances, with all the CPU's, the mouse was recognized by the DOS MS Mouse driver (v11). It just didn't respond when it had a CPU >66MHz installed …

CPU Dependent Mouse Problem

Posted on 2006-06-15, 17:36

in PC Emulation
Citizens of Vogonosphere.. I've got a tough one. While recently testing whether a recently aquired 486/DX4-100 was a good working CPU or not, I noticed my Serial-version classic Microsoft "J" mouse wasn't working in any DOS mouse-enabled program. I thought it might be due to the new CPU, so I tried …

I don't mean to sound discouraging, Jake. But I don't even know where to begin. I mean, King's Quest can only go so fast. :s-face: and only takes up a neglible fraction of a 4.5GB drive. :oops: You've got some awesome spare hardware laying there. And a lot of it IS apropos for what you're doing. But …

Re: Advice on a 286 & ISA adapters

Posted on 2006-06-07, 21:51

It really just depends what you want to do with this 286, Jake. As far as games are concerned, games like Wolf3D, Wing Commander, etc. were standard fair for 286's. So you're not going to get much out of some of those spair cards. In fact, I'd save most of those for a 486 if it were me. I'd probably …
