Int19h and reaching F000:FFF0 will cause the reboot message, too. Maybe this should be split up into its own thread.

My russian IBM PC "Electronika MS-1502" with CGA card has 32K of video RAM (B800:0000 -- B800:7FFF). 8 pages in text mode 80 x 25 and 16 pages in text mode 40 x 25. SuperCGA 😀 Wikipedia says 16k RAM.

CGA has only 4 pages, Hercules only one.

These are two drives in one. Think of as the crossed part of the cable built into the device. You need a BIOS/Mainboard that supports both A and B floppy drives.

Patch for display address.

Gotta love those old 50-wire SCSI computer bowels 😉

I meant real Hercules works same as real CGA. I'm preparing a patch for DOSBox.

In the old TVs the picture tube itself is a nice capacitor 😀

Some drives have jumpers for master/slave/single.

They'd discharge after some time. You can also unplug it while the computer is running, that will instantly suck out most of the charge from them.

Nevermind, I've hex-edited the com file - it works the same as on CGA.

I think you need to set both A and B in the BIOS.
Re: Change PSU fan - is it possible?

The more quiet power supply might actually have different temperature control so swapping the fan would be next to useless. You'll also need soldering skills.

Could you make one for Hercules? (3bxh instead 3dxh, or use the address that's in the BIOS data area). So I can check real hardware.

Don't expect huge CPU loads from a little mixing and forwarding data to the sound card... On older computers the Soundblaster FM synth might hit your CPU a bit.

My build isn't needed, only netbios.exe. The difference between this one and IPX games is you load netbios.exe (TSR) after you made the IPX connection with ipxnet.
