Activity Stream

I would certainly be in support of that, for obvious reasons. I cannot advise on such a project due to limited understanding of...

Looks like Cherry keyswitches - I'll bet the switches still work as the shafts are complete. Even the one on the top row likely has enough shaft to...

Trixter, Do you still have the DEB software accessible somewhere? I couldn't get to this link. I've got a DEB card, but need at minimum the...

Two hard disk controllers in a system at the same time like that is just asking for trouble. Even if it says it can change the address, or disable...

Nice find. Too much of the these types of vintage stuff is ending up in recycling.

Thanks, I'll check that stuff out.

Careful, it's not IMA ADPCM or MS ADPCM, but a custom ADPCM that you can only create (as far as I know) by compressing your samples using VEDIT or...

Depending on the allocation scheme, you also have to be careful. Historically, many C based systems locate bookeeping information for the block,...

Thanks for the replies. Glad to hear these boards are still working. So I think we're saying we'd like another board supporting CompactFlash with...

They came in and the letters are beautifully shiny. I had to order eight as that was their minimum quantity... so I have some spares...

So, what do my measurements say? Are there any shorts on the power rails? Please help.

Thanks. Can we please continue the previous thread? I posted my results of checking for shorts on the power rails twice, but no one responded to...

Regarding point 4): The network card is a D-Link 220X, I am using the manufacturer's packet driver and it definitely works as tested in mTCP (for...

I did solve the 80-column issue (in the same fashion taht you suggested), I also installed a brand-new battery for the RTC and I did test the mTCP...

No front panel at the moment (WIP). The IOB6120 is plugged directly into the top of the SBC6120 (sandwich mode!). I will see about hooking up an...

It is a variable capacitor. They rarely fail and would not effect the power supply.

I finally decided to just use 32K, and try adpcm compressed format which is supported by all sound blaster cards.

Integrated sound was still fairly rare in Pentium II machines. Have you opened the case up to see if there is a card or not? Are there any...

The video BIOS is supposed to set the byte at 40h:84h correctly; if there is no video BIOS, the system BIOS is supposed to do this. Booting MS-DOS...

You'll always see a trimmer capacitor on 8088/86 PC boards near the 14.3818MHz crystal. This is a signal present on the ISA bus and the idea is to...

I think the OP is really overthinking this. Chuck's solution is the safest: Allocate 128K, find the 64K DMA page boundary within that, and use that...

I'll be glad to. Just give me a day or so.

The ‘trick’ will definitely NOT work on an 8088/8086 and not with <= 640K RAM. Sounds like sticking with a 32K buffer within a 64K memory block is...

Wrong. Many tantalum caps, which are known to go short sometimes when being old and not powered for a long time. We actually told him that already in...

And now I get to eat my words, as I just found an auction with KBD 302 keyboards. I ordered one and will test it out. I have some AT&T people in...

c21 is a variable capacitor. Not likely to be the problem. It's used to trim the frequency of the oscillator (it's part of). Actually I didn't see...
