Added some new Promise EIDE 4030 Plus VLB Roms that I got from Beatoven

https://www.vogonsdrivers.com/getfile.php?fileid=2260

The BIOS ROM is P003 Aug 1995. Looking at pictures, it seems that there is a P004 March 1996. Anyone care to share?

I found this driver disk for a Chinon Caddy CD-ROM - I think it was the SCSI CDS-535. I don't know who needs it these days but I figure it belongs here.

Driver references "NCS SCSI CARD"

Does this look OK?

Looks right to me! I got rid of that drive long long ago, I remember how Master of Orion 2 had horrid load times using a 2x optical drive.

Hello vogons!

I've been using this forum a lot, though passively as a source of information. Without ever registering. What a great community! Thank you. Now I have something useful to contribute, I hope and I saw I only get an account on vogonsdrivers if I have several useful posts on vogons. I don't.

So the first thing is SciTech Snap Graphics for Windows 9x. Useful for all its functions and some of the drivers for adapters that don't support Win9x natively. So, I would just post a link but I'm not actually sure if it can just be considered a driver or abandonware. In the last case this would be the wrong place, so I didn't post a link yet. Does anyone have an answer to this?

Another thing:
I have a fortemedia fm-801, sometimes also called sp-801, which is interesting and cheap, but drivers for Windows are hard to find and often buggy and unstable. But there is this KEWL 😀 synthesizer programme for it and the website http://fm801.kewl.org/app/about/ mentions that one should use the Terratec TT-512i drivers. The links on kewl.org are dead, but the drivers can actually be found on terratec's website (Audio/512digital): https://www.terratec.de/support.php?lang=en. Might be interesting to upload them on vogonsdrivers, also mentioning fm-801 in the title?

Best wishes,
Mo
