I have an external SCSI drive that came with one of my Apple IIGS units back in the day. It’s a Seagate 400MB drive (Apple formatted). Hardly ever used it. Anyway, it’s been sitting on my shelf for sometime. I fired it up not connected to a computer and the HD and power supply seem to function...

Wow. My family used AOL from 2004-2010 when they had a partnership with Chrysler (then DaimlerChrysler) and my Dad was able to get a corporate discount. I may still have an AOL CD with a DaimlerChrysler sticker somewhere sealed - I’ll have to look. We eventually transitioned to Rogers and...

AOL still exists?

So the manual is bull? Wonder where they got the 100MB max partition from.

I was reading over the owner's manual for the Orange 386 (I know I have a 486 card but I was never able to find the correct manual for it). I would imagine that the information is similar. Anyway, the manual states that the emulated Drive C for the OrangePC Hard Disk can only have a maximum of...

I wonder if the video driver you are using for your card will finally fix my graphics problem with Hoyle Classic. Mine only seems to like VGA 3.0

Here’s a pic of the card from when the forum member Jamieson owned it: I’ll look into downloading the DOS utilities you provided.

So what do these diagnostic utilities do exactly?

Not sure, still trying to figure out which model I have after 3+ years of ownership.

Got a copy of Microsoft MS-DOS 6.22 Upgrade. Still loads into the IBM DOS 6.1 shell when I start the OrangePC app (I guess this 6.22 upgrade doesn’t entirely replace a previous version of DOS). I’m now down to 3 MB of usable space in my 50 MB partition with the install of 6.22. I was reading...

Finkmac with the quality posts 😎

I had a LaserWriter IINT and while it was in very nice condition and had a low page count (4000), every toner I used smeared and left tons of toner dust inside the printer. I ended up selling it to a local member here sometime ago; not sure what became of the IINT. My ImageWriter II and LQ are...

I have the same problem with my current LCD screen - a 20" IBM ThinkVision L201p. Tons of wavy lines on a cold boot, but then it goes away (the lines are more aggressive on startup when the 8.24 GC card is left in accelerated mode). Interestingly, the lines are not as bad when using my...

So this is what I’ve been missing out on for over a decade? The startup rocket is cool, nevertheless 😎

This may come across as a ridiculous question (as I’ve owned an 8.24 GC card for over 10 years now), but what exactly is the difference between the 8.24 GC control panel and the Monitors control panel that came with System 7.1? I never installed any extensions or software for my 8.24 GC in the IIfx.

Tried a bunch of different Super VGA drivers for Win 3.1 and none of them worked (monitor would be blank, garbled, or would hang at the Win 3.1 splash screen). I’m still unsure if this is an 8.24 GC issue or if my particular OrangePC card is simply incompatible with different VGA drivers (as...

Used the install.exe file in the SB16 folder to reinstall the SB-2770 drivers in Win 3.1. All is good now: I did notice on startup that there is a line about a corrupt CTCM file. Not sure what that is about: Still need to find a proper 256 color driver that won’t hang Win 3.1 and fix the color...

That is weird. Guess I missed something when I installed the SB-2770 drivers.
