S-2000 is not a PnP card. You need to configure it manually. Did you check why there is a yellow exclamation mark in the device manager. Normally Windows tells you why...

Aladdin V chipset is incompatible with these LG DVD drives if you use the ALi IDE driver. It's not a Windows fault. You have two options: 1. Use the standard IDE driver from Win98, It'll work just fine. 2. Use a different DVD ROM drive, not an LG one.

The 278MB/s result is a typo, should be 178MB/s However it is possible to get > 180MB/s in Sandra2002 on an Aladdin5 (with K6-III+ 500).
Re: FIC PA-2005 Help/Questions

Question 2: The Motherboard also has a USB header (10-Pin) Anything special I need to know about this or will any 10-pin work? The USB on the PA-2005 is non-functional, because the USB controller in the VIA chipset is faulty (it's disabled permanently in hardware). The 10-pin header belongs to the …

The IDE chip on that board is a NatSemi PC87332, which is ISA only anyway. So you won't loose any performance if you use a separate ISA IDE controller.

I think I found the full manual for that board somewhere here on VOGONS. The manual on the Asus website is incomplete. This https://www.vogons.org/viewtopic.php?f=46&t=39134&p=362453&hilit=486sp3g%20manual#p362453 should be the correct one. I didn't have any issues with the onboard IDE controller on …

Re: Help enabling HDD DMA mode and ISA Slots
Posted on 2021-09-14, 18:28
I had to do that Jumper D thing in order to boot with those speeds, and the USB card doesn't seem to be the issue. Is when I plug an ISA card that it gets wonky, which is bad because PCI slots are limited in this board :( Did you try a different soundcard? Or the on-board sound (it's ISA too)? If …
Re: Help enabling HDD DMA mode and ISA Slots

I'd suggest that you remove this VIA USB card first. Also check if the RAM is ok, maybe put in a smaller module for testing (64 or 128MB). Then there's this: http://m571.com/m571/m571upgrade.htm Check the section about "What about AMD chips and the problem with JP5 D?", maybe this is related to the …
Re: Can't get a PCI network card to work on a PCI+VLB motherboard

Should work, maybe also try the other slots. Try to remove the card in the device manager and have Windows re-detect it. If it still doesn't work, try to load a DOS packet driver for the card (see here: http://www.georgpotthast.de/sioux/packet.htm). It should tell you whether your card is detected …

Just set the "#INTA Connect IRQ" for Slot 1 to IRQ 11 and put your NIC into Slot1.

PCI interrupts work differently than ISA IRQs. See here: https://tldp.org/HOWTO/Plug-and-Play-HOWTO-7.html You have to link a PCI interrupt line (#INTA to #INTD) to a free ISA IRQ. Modern PCI systems can do these assignments automatically, but here you have to do that manually.
Re: Can't get a PCI network card to work on a PCI+VLB motherboard
Posted on 2021-09-05, 14:15
I think you have to assign an IRQ manually. The PCI-BIOS on this board is pretty old (v 2.00 probably), so it might not do this automatically. However, I can confirm that a 3COM 3C905 works on a Socket4 board with a similar OPTi chipset (596/597).

Sounds like you're trying to use SB16 in SBPro stereo mode. This doesn't work properly, SB16 is not compatible to SBPro stereo mode.
Re: ASUS PVI-486AP4 motherboard fsb jumpers?

I found that the 486AP4 is very picky about PCI cards, especially graphics cards. A lot of cards that I tried on that board, even older ones, did not work properly. They mostly lock up in Win95 or when switching to a VESA mode in DOS. S3 Virge and S3 Trio64V+ are such candidates. Interestingly, a …

You need a special tool (SSMODE) to switch the Soundscape to WSS mode. SSMODE WSS switches to WSS mode, SSMODE SB switches back to Soundblaster mode.
Re: MSI MS-5169 dead - blown MOSFET?

Be careful with that K6-2, chances are that it was also killed when powering on the board. Or it was the cause of the cracked/dead mosfet. If a K6 dies due to overvoltage, it can cause a short-circuit on its power supply pins Vcc2 and Vcc3 to GND. This in turn will also kill the voltage regulator on …
