This comment will probably get lost in between the other comments but: Install the cirrus logic card back in it's a order of magnitude faster than the trident From Dos go onto the Windows directory and type "setup" then install the graphics drives it makes a huge difference Install dynamic drive overlay software (from Phil's computer labs website) and set the drive to mode 1 (from within the bios) to make it bootable , you will have to reinstall Dos and windows but it's a walk in the park
The second Cirrus card he installed in the machine (the GD5422, which replaced the GD5401 with the dodgy port) is a solid card for a DX4, although obviously there are better options out there. Druaga1, if you see this, the second Cirrus card CAN support 1024x768 @ 256 colors, as it's a native SVGA card. I hope to see some 1024x768 action in the next vid ;-)
It's stuff like this that makes me wish I had been old enough to start learning computers in the early 1990's rather than the early 2000's... I still got into it before most people yeah, but I missed so much of the early glory days...
yes, the SETUP from dos is way easier when you set it at a resolution that doesnt work. Or for any other number of things. Recovered from a virus that killed my Windows 3.11 install by running setup a few times and it worked its way through what it needed to replaced off the install disks. Windows 3.x is actually a pretty smart OS in that regard...
Hey, Ian. I don't know if you'll read this but if you do, I wanted to say thanks for doing the kinds of videos you do. Not many people grab two technologies that should never work together and find some bass-ackwards, convoluted way of getting it to work. Keep this shit up man, you keep a lot of us going whether you know it or not.
Yep, that RAM goes in Macs. I remember triumphantly upgrading my LC II as a kid from 4MB to 6MB with some RAM sticks I scored off a friend at school. I was GOD... "well, it's closer to 32MB, like the new iMac..." I would tell myself... eek. Later I managed to get a Quadra 660AV, it had 48MB - so MORE than the iMac 333MHz base. BANGIN'.
Very cool to capture video on a 486 :D I remember my first IBM Flatbed scanner. Just getting real images in my computer was magic back then. It was like the computer was more connected to it's outside world.
Christian Lucatino yeah but those are probably hard to install on a motherboard like this as they are made for things like Arduino not old computers, I assume back in the day there where specific products made to let you run 3v CPU in 5V motherboard. Also 800mah is very little power so I think those are logic level converters not meant to power any real hardware
According to an FCC listing and on Wikipedia, for the specific video card you're using, the max is 1280x1024i "CL-GD5422 - Enhanced version of the 5420 (32-bit internal memory interface, 15/16/24 bit RAMDAC. An ISA video card carrying this chipset offered 1280×1024 interlaced max resolution"
A 486DX processor already has the math co-processor integrated, that second socket would be used if you had a 486SX processor (which is a 486 with the FPU disabled), and that second socket would take a 487 (which is just a 486DX that disables the main 486).
did he research whether or not the motherboard could do 3.3 volt for the cpu through a jumper setting? or did he just assume that it could only do 5 volt? there is something to cook your noodle a bit
I'm pretty sure your sound card has two pins possibly causing a short on the header (most likely harmless but still not ideal!). You can clearly see the problem at 7:00. Later bud, keep the vids coming! :D
Technology has come so far that my channel trailer was recorded using a $9 dash cam set at VGA resolution. In fact, most of my videos that are gonna be uploaded will be in that format using that camera, doesn't even break a sweat recording in VGA, HD 1080p is what makes it start dropping frames heavily.
I don't know about that board specifically, but my experience with 486s and early Pentiums leads me to believe it probably had either dip switches or jumpers to set that as most motherboards did. Too expensive to make different boards for different applications, just make everything dip or jumper selectable. That's how old-school overclocking worked as well, moving jumpers or dip switches on the mobo to change the base clock and multiplier. They also used to label boards pretty well back then too, for just such an occasion. If you look around for switches or jumpers on the board, you might just find it.
I have memories of an old Packard Bell that I upgraded the RAM and processor (with an overclock) back in the day. Even an off-the-shelf PC that wasn't really expected to be upgraded had jumper settings for any processor that could physically fit in the socket.
As it happens I have been doing a fair bit of research lately with respect to ISA video cards that can support higher resolutions. I have a 386SX which I have owned for a great many years that I have been giving some love to. Recently, I bought a 1MB Tseng ET4000AX which is amongst the fastest DOS cards (I missed out on an ET4000/w32 which would have been even better). You can get decent ISA cards that support SVGA resolutions, and you are correct in your assumption that an SVGA card is what you should get for higher resolutions - simply because even frame buffer cards such as the Tseng offer a measure of acceleration at those resolutions. Colour depth affects performance with these cards more than resolution or bus type (Vesa Local or PCI) as does the CPU (a 486 DX2 66 is pretty good though). I found adding an 80387SX improved Windows 3.11 performance by a fair margin, though your DX2 has the FPU built in, so that much is moot. A Tseng 4000/w32 is probably the best card under DOS, and good under Windows. For Windows, a Cirrus Logic CL-GD5426 is likely to be amongst the absolute best cards as these have hardware BiTBLT engines for Windows acceleration. The Trident cards have a poor reputation and I would try and get the Cirrus card back to life if you can.
You could either get some 4 MB 30-pin RAM, or get a later motherboard that supports both your DX4-100 and newer 72-pin RAM. Some later 486s also have VESA Local Bus slots and sometimes even PCI card slots. That might solve all of your problems provided you got the drivers. 72-pin RAM is also easy to get in 8 MB modules on up, though expect half the number of available RAM slots on the motherboard. Be careful not to mistake FPM and EDO memory modules. You'd likely want FPM memory. There will also likely be jumpers to note the motherboard's front side bus speed (33 MHZ for both DX2-66 and DX4-100), multipliers for the CPU (DX4-100 would be 3x), and possibly voltage and motherboard cache jumpers.
Aren't there 486DX4 Overdrive chips with built-in voltage regulators that are drop-in replacements for the DX2? That sounds awfully familiar, like something I think I saw on PhilsComputerLab.
I usually run SETUP.EXE from the Windows folder and from DOS. It lets you change the video driver, as well as those other hardware settings that are mirrored in the Windows version of Setup.
If space wasn't an issue, I do believe there where adapters for 5 volt to 3.3 volt CPU's for socket 1 CPU's (basically they inserted into the socket, it steps the power dwon from 5 volts to 3.3, and has a socket on top for your 3.3 volt CPU)
SVGA is just an extension of VGA for resolutions above 640x480. If a card has more than 256kb of vram it's probably capable of SVGA even if it's not labeled as such and the amount of vram on the card determines how far you can push screen res/color depth. At 8-bit (256) color you need 1 byte per pixel so a 512kb card should do 800x600@8bit no problem. That Cirrus Logic card you ended up using in the end must have more than 256kb on board otherwise 640x480@8bit would be impossible (needs 300kb, and is why it's a classified as a SVGA mode). Also look for CPU config jumpers on the motherboard. Those old boards had boatloads of them and you probably need both voltage select and multiplier jumpers. X4 chips are a ruse; they actually run a 3X multiplier. Also also, Win3 has a DOS textmode setup program for selecting the video driver in case you end up with the wrong one installed and the GUI won't load. As primitive as Win3 is, it's not so primitive that you have to muck around in ini files by hand as a normal practice.
Isn't the voltage set on the motherboard by a jumper? I have a 486 socket board that supports all kinds of stuff and there's a lot of jumpers and a long list of settings for each CPU. One is voltage if I recall correctly.
I bought a 486 motherboard a couple months ago and I have a lot of problems regadring the HDD and the floppy disk. Starting 3 weeks ago, I can't boot to the hard drive (old 20 GB from 2000, I used OnTrack Disk Manager). I remember the last thing I tried before it stopped working was trying to fix the Y2K bug that the motherboard has by using a MS-DOS program. And now not even the floppy disk drive works (I just bought a Gotek Floppy Emulator and it still refuses to boot correctly from it). Any idea? (maybe I'm gonna make a video about it)
Actually if you know the model, it isnt hard to find cirrus logic drivers today. I've used it a whole lot it in bochs and qemu, both pc and android versions
Those cards can handle pretty much every res and color depth of the time if you have enough vram. I have a cirus logic from 94 with a meg of vram and it can do 800x600 in 16 bits colours. If you can find the Cirus logic drivers and it's utilities, you should be able to change the res and colours in windows. Since you are using only the vga standard, you are pretty much limited, but this card supports also the vesa standard : www.pcguide.com/ref/video/stdVESA-c.html If you want to see what resolution and colour depth you can have for the amount of vram that you have, you can check this chart here : www.pcguide.com/ref/video/modes_Buffer.htm
you can pick up a dx4 overdrive chip cheap on ebay, they are easy to spot as they are black with an intergrated black heatsink, just get a dx4 100 the overdrive version was meant as a drop in replacement for 5v motherboards, quite a lot of those sx 33 boards with the soldered in cpu had an extra foxconn socket as an upgrade path, just drop it in set the jumpers/dip switches and bingo, i miss the 486 days.
ATI Mach32 would be an ultimate upgrade. I'd have thought a Paradise PVGA would be an option as well. I'd have thought at least 800x600 @ 256 / 1024x768 interlaced would be the kind of thing.
From the number of chips on the videocard it looks like it has 1MB of memory, which should allow 1024x768 in 256 color, or 800x600 in 16 bit color. The chip is capable of 24bit color in 640x480
next thing has to be the processor since it seems it allows "higher" resolutions and even works in 16-bit mode but for video capturing it kinda lacks the horse power needed yes, now playback its smooth since the 8 megs are helping out to make that happend but when you try to record things you NEED more processor power in order to have a more smooth or at least decent framerate, that's what is missing there and maybe why the system boots up so slowly to Win 3.11 but its strange since it has 8 megs windows shouldn't be lagging like it does. Anyway, really liking how this machine is shaping up to be.
iirc, that was around the time that AMD still acted as a second supplier for Intel architecture chips. They were licensed by Intel to do them. But they eventually started making thier own, including the Am5x86 and, well, look at them now
As 101 razzer pointed out just get a motherboard manual for it and set the jumpers correctly these old boards had jumpers to setup cpu's clocks and voltages todays boards automatically do it but if for some reason that board doesn't support it then your screwed i guess didn't hear much on that board type
If you want, in all seriousness if you haven’t thrown it away yet, you could send me that video card and if repair it for you. I have a full setup of desoldering tools and high end soldering equipment where I work as well as those ports.
Not that much? Thats allot of ram for ms-dos lol I don't even know of a way to use that much ram up even with scsi sound mouse network zip drivers all loaded in at once and then trying to play a game still probably wouldn't be able to use up all the extended memory
I have an amd 5x86 that will fit your socket if you want me to send it to you it does have a voltage adapter so it can run off 5v. PM me if you are interested
PLEASE, Please get the Windows 3.1 OEM graphics drivers for that card! It's so much more likely to work well than the inbox drivers... www.vogonsdrivers.com/index.php?catid=47
Lol.. beefy and emachines do *not* go together. (At least my/my parents's emachines is not beefy. I bet it couldn't even run solitaire without lagging. But the machine is really nostalgic to me, so I can't "bash" it too much...)
Jesus hasn't ever screwed with my video settings. My network settings though... I know he thinks he's being funny, but man, he's gotta cut his hair, get out of the garage loft and get a job so he can afford his own computer to screw around with.

we got no video cause the videos not plugged in I love that
Who else thinks that floppy disk holder at 15:35 is absolutely rad?
Yeah it made me grin when i saw it!
That has got to be the coolest floppy disk holder I’ve ever seen. I need to get one of those somewhere.

Get a DX4-100 Overdrive chip, that model will run with 5V
Also, get some SRAM chips for the ram to speed it up a little bit ^^
What about IBM Blue Lightnings, I remember those things everywhere.
He could also try to find a Voltage converter, but im guessing they would be pretty rare now

TOMORROW IS 4/20 DRUAGA1 SPECIAL PLS
This is great work, I hope the Lego guys see this and hire you for their next Lego movie.
Gotta put a math co-processor in there, you'll be amazed how much it helps out.
Despite the name, it basically just takes over the functions of the primary processor.
A 486DX processor already has the math co-processor integrated, that second socket would be used if you had a 486SX processor (which is a 486 with the FPU disabled), and that second socket would take a 487 (which is just a 486DX that disables the main 486).
@@ChartreuseKitsune Correct. I had a 486SX and wanted a math coprocessor or a 486DX instead.
That is the coolest stacking floppy disk carrier.
druaga1 + actual research??? not gonna ask, just gonna wait for the 4/20 video :)

Judging from the residue it looks like the Intel dx4 had a heatsink glued on it.

din't the DECTalk PC motherboard have a dip switch to set voltage to 3.3V for the CPU

You can set the voltage with a jumper in the board
How dare you move parts without me watching Druaga.

ProTip: instead of touching WIN.INI, use C:/WINDOWS/SETUP - It's a cool text-mode equivalent to the GUI hardware config
you could acquire a voltage regulator for it, that's what they did to solve this problem at the time, theoretically that CPU could work in that board
He did mention that in the video.
I noticed, then promptly did a facepalm
Aren't there 486DX4 Overdrive chips with built-in voltage regulators that are drop-in replacements for the DX2? That sounds awfully familiar, like something I think I saw on PhilsComputerLab.
That's pretty much what my first PC looked like. I've got a TON of ram just like that. It goes with an AWE32 soundfont audio card.

That floppy disk holder is *awesome* ! Also, is that background from Pokémon ruby/sapphire?
So, is how similar is that to the IBM Blue Lightning 486DX4/100?
ATI Mach32 would be an ultimate upgrade. I'd have thought a Paradise PVGA would be an option as well. I'd have thought at least 800x600 @ 256 / 1024x768 interlaced would be the kind of thing.
Can't wait for 4/20 vid
still not sure how you plan on getting the ultimate dos gaming machine out of this. will it run rayman yet?
no voltage and clock multiplier jumpers?
Oh the AWE utils are quite cool on Win 3.1 :)
You need one overdrive cpu, they are 3.3v with built in regulators to step down the 5v provided by the motherboard.
on my board the amd chips have an adapter socket between the foxconn and the cpu.
i wonder if you ever did that CPU upgrade
How do card get out of its case to eat pins??? My card does this all the time and it's annoying af

Andrive yup.
From the number of chips on the videocard it looks like it has 1MB of memory, which should allow 1024x768 in 256 color, or 800x600 in 16 bit color.

Do you have by any mean link to full SoundBlaster CD downloads?
try installing the File Explorer patch to see xx/xx/18 dates correctly
Does that motherboard have a VESA Local Bus connector?

My dx2-66 boots to 3.11 almost instantly, I think he has turbo on the slower mode.
My XGA-2 MCA in my IBM PS/2 model 80 does 1024x768 256 colors in Windows 3.1... and the computer is from 1989.
IBM is killen em'
iirc, that was around the time that AMD still acted as a second supplier for Intel architecture chips. They were licensed by Intel to do them. But they eventually started making thier own, including the Am5x86 and, well, look at them now

I thougth 256MB memory is too less. Than you came in with 8MB!
As 101 razzer pointed out just get a motherboard manual for it and set the jumpers correctly these old boards had jumpers to setup cpu's clocks and voltages todays boards automatically do it but if for some reason that board doesn't support it then your screwed i guess didn't hear much on that board type
If you want, in all seriousness if you haven’t thrown it away yet, you could send me that video card and if repair it for you. I have a full setup of desoldering tools and high end soldering equipment where I work as well as those ports.
Never tought you could play video with 8MB of RAM.
Tomorrow is 420
Not that much? Thats allot of ram for ms-dos lol I don't even know of a way to use that much ram up even with scsi sound mouse network zip drivers all loaded in at once and then trying to play a game still probably wouldn't be able to use up all the extended memory
happy 420 guys
Yah this was all from 1992-93. Haha I remember doing all of this crap.
Thank god you call it Lego not Leygoes
Rip random vga cable missing vsync and hsync pins
Aww, I wanted to see something explode...
Wasn't this called a "DOS" machine? This is more about Windows 3.11

THANKS BILL GATES :P
bill gates is rolling in his grave
Jon Mahashintina What he isnt even dead for serouis He is still livivng :D
I have an amd 5x86 that will fit your socket if you want me to send it to you it does have a voltage adapter so it can run off 5v. PM me if you are interested
PLEASE, Please get the Windows 3.1 OEM graphics drivers for that card! It's so much more likely to work well than the inbox drivers... www.vogonsdrivers.com/index.php?catid=47
I totally agree. The specific Cirrus Logic drivers were required. The inbox SVGA modes just didn't work on those cards.
www.vogons.org/viewtopic.php?t=72585 heres this for modding the motherboard to accept the DX4 without frying it, JIC you felt like it lol

Lol.. beefy and emachines do *not* go together. (At least my/my parents's emachines is not beefy. I bet it couldn't even run solitaire without lagging. But the machine is really nostalgic to me, so I can't "bash" it too much...)

Bug one request just build of windows 98 machine keep windows 1988 and then sell it to me
Jesus hasn't ever screwed with my video settings. My network settings though...
I know he thinks he's being funny, but man, he's gotta cut his hair, get out of the garage loft and get a job so he can afford his own computer to screw around with.
The high pitch whine through the whole video is... unpleasant
itsstephenj I'm used to it. Been around old computers almost all my life.

If classic windows versions dont wanna, its only now up to windows xp allow. If it dont, then forget about pinning man :/
