Re: Windows XP at high resolutions with scaling

I'm not sure how ATI/AMD cards perform but I recall seeing reports about those video cards (if supported DP1.2) having working HBR2 on XP thus can show higher resolutions. It was said that ATI/AMD used a different approach than nVidia to achieve that. For nVidia, however, you're limited to DP1.1 …

I'm interested in true 4k (3840×2160), is 2560x1440 your LCD native and only trying get higher refresh? Your LCD dosn't have DP input? I have tried DP but it is not working now. It worked at first and I entered 165hz and it blacked out and I can't get it to work again. I even changed the drivers. I …

Has there been any further progress with this? The best I have been able to do in XP with my 760 is 2560x1440@60. I had to use an active DP to HDMI cable to even get that . I tried a DVI-D to HDMI and could get 2560 but it looked terrible. It only looked ok at 1920. There is a good article on this …

I was looking into the new clone cards and was wondering if it would be better to either get a OPL3 LPT card to use with the AWE64 or get either a waveblaster for the Audician either for the header on the cards or a LPT version. Wouldn't those options get me pretty much everything ? Since I only …

I thought that was the problem. I'll order some SIMMS and retry it. I had no lucj at all getting the Live! and Audician to work together. Every time I try to adjust the Audician settings with setupsa I get a WSS I/O error. Is there a specific way to set them up? The Live! works if I completely …

I did try the CT3670 for a bit but for some reason I was not getting midi or AWE32 to work in Dos games like I was with the AWE64. The jumper is on the midi switch so I don't know what is happening. I went with the Live! for now with the 2ZS drivers and it sounds really nice. I will run the Live! …

My WIN98SE gaming rig has 3 ISA slots and 2 PCI slots. There's a PCI network card (Intel 82557 - E100B), and a ISA AWE64 soundcard - they both happily coexist and it all works great. It is the CT3670. Right now I have just the AWE64 in there. It is good to know that PCI and ISA cards can coexist. …

Hello everyone. It's been a few years since I posted . After a marriage and 2 kids I'm ready to finish the build I started buying parts for in 2017 (finally). My goal is as close to 100% DOS and Win98 compatibility as I can get and still have the best sound (don't we all?). I have an Abit VH6T with …

Maybe this is of help? not sure which Voodoo you actually have! https://www.vogons.org/viewtopic.php?f=46&t=35721 Also maybe try a different windows driver. I like the reference or the fastvoodoo drivers depending on which system I'm using I'm using the Voodoo 1(Diamond Monster 3D) so that list …

Why can't you reboot into MS-DOS mode? There is 0 reason to use a window, and honestly, for best DOS support, use DOS!. As has been mentioned, the key sticking point is the digital joystick that won't work in DOS. (There is the old SDWRGMPD utility that might help there, but I doubt it.) Yeah I …

Looks like Shadow President has an official patch that might fix sound issues. Did you get the patch? http://www.patches-scrolls.de/patch/3652/7/ https://www.scribd.com/doc/316744259/Shadow-President-ReadMe And for games that do not run under dosbox of win98: I installed Win2000 (dual boot menu). …

Unfortunately that didn't work and I still can't play voodoo dos games in fullscreen while in Win95. Is this a known problem? It happened with both my voodoo 1 and 2 cards with obviously different drivers. Has anyone here played a dos glide game while in windows?

There's also SoundFX 2000. It was designed for NT but it's open source now so if you have some programming skills then you can have at it. That's hilarious. Apparently just getting VDMSound for Win9x into its current alpha state was a herculean effort. OK. I can confirm this and makes sense since …

Thanks for the advice chinny22. I have narrowed it down to the voodoo card. I can play a non-voodoo game and go in and out of dos just fine, but not for voodoo dos games. Voodoo windows games are okay too. It is actually worse with the Voodoo 1 than the Voodoo 2, but they both do it. I have been …
