I recently found a sound blaster audigy 2 zs pcmcia No cable though, any idea where I can find it? What are thoughts on the card? Good? you can use headphones on the right side output without the cable. The cable is more for surround sound setups. Otherwise since its proprietary you would need to …

Thanks, Pickle! That would be amazing! Also thanks to dionb for the link. I think these are just the DOS drivers though. Always helps to specify which OS you're looking for drivers for... i have the update packs for dos,95,98,me,xp and some other installers. Pretty sure i downloaded everything that …

i like to use grub4dos on at least a pentium, it was slow boot on a 486. plop boot loader is another. I like this one cause it can hide or rearrange partitions which is the process? first installing 3.11? then 95, then 98 and when the program? should the software for creating the boot be executed …

no not scissors :-) he is doing this under a microscope. its a straight edge / exacto knife. Razor blade could work too. I had a to fix a problem like this a famicom cart. So as other said lightly scrap the solder mask till you see some copper. If the gap is to large to bridge with solder many, …

Some post codes have leds for the voltage if it’s anything but solid might point to a problem on that voltage rail. The hex codes can tell you where you are in the boot process and give you any idea what system is failing. You do need the book to lookup the codes. Simple test with multimeter put …

If they are reversed they might also get hot, but the right way is with the multimeter. A post code card wouldn’t hurt.

That hole is connected to ground plane anyways so i think you should be fine even with solder connect to the circled part on the board. As long as the via is intact. those small point is to connect the ground plane with the inner ground plane in the circuit board yeah i wasnt sure about that either …

just one opinion and you see if anyone chimes in basically the solder mask is gone and the solder is on the ground plane that is exposed now. I think problem your running into is ground plane is wicking the heat away. Ive had the same problem clearing ground holes. The best way to handle it is heat …
