It doesn't seem like the regular AWE64 drivers work with this card.

Where did you find that? I've been wanting. 4600 or 4650 for ages.

Found it at a recycler like most of my stuff

You might need to connect the sb_link to your motherboard in order to get it working in dos

Wasn't that the Dell version of the AWE64 PCI?

Well the Trust Korg Super Sound Module arrived today. Quickly popped it on a SB16 and happy to report it works great and sounds awesome. Just need to decide which card to host it now.

That's a super pretty looking DB, congrats 👍

Gosh, I've been looking for Korg DB for ages, man.

Congrats!

Recordings or it didn't happen 😜

One can never have enough S3 PCI cards.

I love it :3

I got me one of these:

Is it just me or is the software & driver that comes with the TL866-II scary as just about anything you can find on the internet short of products that promise you free money?

The installer & drive really look like something that could infect you with custom APT malware if your domain name ends with .gov.

I feel like I need to build a VM that's disconnected from the internet before using that software.

Am I too paranoid?

Kind of bare bones I suppose:

Very true. Especially if they're Number 9.

Bought a MS Sidewinder 3D Pro in original box with docs, software etc from local thrift store. Looks like it was never used. Can't take a picture until my phone gets a charge.
Somewhere in the garage I have a few Logitech and MS joysticks stored but did not label the storage boxes so not sure if I already had one or not.....

Bought this Magnavox Headstart DX-33. Can you figure out why I bought it?
Seller's pics:

This would be easily worth north of 300USD... and it's still a nice complete retro system with some fine components: Diamond Speedstar64 2MB ISA , Creative Sound blaster CT1600, Chinon 5.25" 1.2MB floppy unit... 😉

Good eyes.

There is one more part that made me buy it.

I saw it before.... but it's like 2AM here and I thought it couldn't be 🤣 The CPU. It seems like Ti486SXL2/66 on PGA132...? Nice catch!

is that a Texas Instruments processor under there? Love the CT1600 as well!

Yes, from what I can tell, it is the Ti486 SXL2 - 66 in PGA132 form.

The CT1600 was more of a bonus and wasn't really needed since I already have at least one of every revision that I know of.

The Diamond SpeedStar64 and the CPU were the main reasons I bought it.
