Been messing about with this over the past week or so. Its gone through a bit of a change on the hardware front and i'm still configuring the thing!
First of all the DVD drive was giving up the ghost. It would not always show up on post and reading disks was iffy. I've had this really nice Yamaha CDRW waiting to go into something so I swapped out the DVD drive for it. It looks miles better and is better fitting to the machine.
I've added a Matrox M3D PowerVR Card which sit alongside the Banshee.
On the sound front, once again the machine has gone through a change. Now installed is the Music Quest MPU401 card, CT3980 AWE32 with 2mb ram and a Yamaha DB50XG and a PAS16. Think this is quite a nice setup on the sound front and will offer a broad spectrum of sound along with the Midi Modules i have also (MT32, SC155 & NS5R)
I added a 92mm fan on a Zalman Bracket to blow some air over the M3D & Banshee.
Pretty happy with this config currently. Not to say it wont change in the future but thats the fun of these old machines 🤣
