Nobody contact this guy please (Cloudschatze etc., usual QuestStudios crew), I'm taking care of it. Didn't realize I was so (in)famous. :cool: I've no interest in this card though, for what it's worth. The research done by QuestStudios members back in the day is basically landmark, since that sort …
Re: I'm confused about the continued use of GliDos

DosFreak, that doesn't answer their question of if the DOSBox included with GliDOS is modified. Yes it is. From GliDOS 1.52 Glidos\Dosbox\README.TXT: This is a copy of DOSBox updated to work with Glidos. The changes are to allow access to Windows named pipes from DOS programs, and to allow DOSBox to …

To be honest, if you drop the "for use in DOSBox" part of your question, you'll get much better answers in "Marvin". We'll even move the thread there if you like. It doesn't terribly make your question different. But: - There are a few modern motherboards with ISA slots, mostly Intel based. These …

I'm in Russia, do you really believe some random twenty years old computer magazine from USA would be in a local library? I'd be pretty surprised. Maybe there's not much of info in that Shopper, but I hope for a better photo. Oops, apologies for the US-centric reply. Perhaps I will try to hunt it …

Supposedly, Star Control 2 supports Media Master. Audio Master also supported by some media program (non-game) called MCS MusicRack. Nice pic! Taken from the Compute article, right? Don't use Highbeam to get that article. You have to give them your credit card number to register, and if you don't …

Great thread! 😀 Perhaps that Rave Racer port could be hacked to run on a Midas 3 board, or a prototype Midas 1 / Midas 2 board sourced from certain Beyond3D forum member, who knows... 😀

You need to level up your Google skills, like me :) According to web references I've found, there's two in the Master series (which are probably the same device by different companies): AudioMaster (aka "Audio Master") and MediaMaster (aka "Media Master") and were made/sold by the following …

For future note to others the tppatch I got from http://www.rose-hulman.edu/~moloney/tp7bug.htm just hangs up, showing a flashing cursor but apparently never completing the patch. I attempted both in a VMWare Player DOS 6.22 VM and in DOSBox with the same results. The one I got from http://www.rose …

Excuse my ignorance but was the site named Vogons after the hitchhiker's race, or is it an acronym of Very Old Games On New Systems? Which one is the coincidence? It's not coincidence, it's intentional. Because we were/are nerds. :) Here's my first post ever here in 2002! (so glad to be able to say …

Did you talk about that wacko 90's-era pinball controller for the PC? You'd be remiss if you didn't! What was that called... think it was by Logitech. [EDIT] Nope, Thrustmaster. Rated one of the worst PC gaming peripherals of all time by Computer Gaming World magazine. http://www.cyberg8t.com/f2comp …
