I started to experiment with NT4 i dont used it back in the era, but i so far i really like it. With 86Box and Banshee/Vooodoo 3, its even possible to play some 2D/Glide/OpenGL games.. With In Vmware workstation is nice and quick and stable (no gaming, there is not 3D acceleration. But there are some annoying this, not classic device manager and Windows explorer default view.. there are is not apply this view to all folder settings and default setting is bad - no toolbar, large icon view. I tried to several tweaking utilities from Win9x, but so far nothing is working. I read somewhere that i can tweak Explorer Advanced keys, but i dont see Advanced key in Explorer Registry Tree path. Does someone find the way how to remember explorer view settings?

BCM20702A0 Windows 10 64bit driver, card is Dell DW1560
ruthan replied to ruthan's topic in Windows 10
Well, there is really nothing except wifi.. That is why it is strange, i dunno if i could killed twice half of Wifi+BT combo card.. Its probably also not dirt on some pin twice etc.. And when one card is original one, its not even some black / white list.. I double checked it, even under System. Same on Linux. In Windows in used driver for Intel USB 3.0 controller from Microsoft all other USB devices include - 4G internal modem works fine, if i plug in USB external bluetooth module it works fine too. -

ruthan replied to ruthan's topic in Windows 10
Device ID was in link above - PCI\VEN_14E4&DEV_43B1&SUBSYS_00191028. I would understand if there would be some unknown device in device manager, or if AIDA or HW or lspci or lsusb would report some device, but its completely silent. In laptop was original Intel Wifi + Bluetooth combo, Intel N 7265 wifi card (dont mistake it with AC 7265 -that is fine, Intel naming sucks), but i have exactly same problem with it in Windows 10 and up to date Linux or Android x86. USB3 3.0 drivers seems fine, i have to check if there are from MS or Toshiba (intel), but other USB devices are working fine. I have very bad memory, so im not sure if with Windows 7 / Windows 8 bluetooth worked (bluetooth is in the machine specs), i think so. I switched wifi card because on existing Windows 10 driver. There some drivers which claim support of this card under Windows 10, but it never worked, even drivers from SDItool, there are for the same device ID, install fine, but there is always Code 10 on device... and on Linux its fine. I also read that there is some problem with Wifi card pin 20 handling, that on some device you have turn on / off airplane mode to make them working, but its not case of my card. Solution supposed to be cover pin 20.. I have this problem only with Windows and in build 4G modem (its working in Linux without it), but not Wifi card. Bios is quite simple some basic UEFI, no bluetooth option just on / off for wifi card and 4G in-build modem and souncard/ lan on / off. And some auto turn off Wifi card, when RJ45 is plugged in - i disabled it. Also all antenas cables -2 of them are connected fine, there is not some 3 plug for additional bluetooth anthena or something like that. Not visible dirt in pci-e m.2 slot etc. My quess would be that bluetooth module is dead, but its the same with 2 different Wifi cards, and one is original shipped with HW one. So im simply looking for some explanation from someone who is more fluent in laptop HW and these cards.. Bluetooth stack for them for older Windows is quite huge.. but not Plug and Play appearance is strange, also not possibility of "ping" this HW with some diagnostic tool. I also messages eBay card seller (+ other sellers of these card on eBay) to provide Windows 10 bluetooth drivers, you would expect that someone who sellers 500+ these cards would know, but i got only excuses. I bough it like 6 years ago, it could be some half dead card from RMA or something, you never know. Im tired and quite busy to try this card with another Windows 7 machine, my Hasleo Windows 7 to go USB (is currenly broken too).. a already half killed Wwan - 4G modem simcard slot by dissembling this device too often I plan to order new Intel Wifi + Bluetooth combo Intel 8xxx something to make next try, but it would take some time to arrive. -
Hello, im strugling to find working Windows 10 64bit drivers for Dell DW1560 wifi + bluetooth card, Wifi is working fine, but bluetooth is the problem, im using it within Toshiba Portege Z20 notebook Specs: https://techinfodepot.shoutwiki.com/wiki/Dell_Wireless_1560_(DW1560) I bough this Broadcom card because of multiboot hackingtosh support and not existing Intel N 7265 Wifi WIndows 10 driver - i tried multiple of them and failed. Strange thing is that Bluetooth device never showed in any OS (Win10,MacOS, Linux) or Hardware detection utility. Im not expert of these combo devices. I dunno where it could be a problem if its some HW problem on Toshiba side or sw issue.. Before it machine was Intel N 7265 Wifi+bluetooth card and it worked fine. All antennas - 2 of them are connected fine, i checked it multiple times. Its normal that Bluetooth device is not autodetected? I read something about pin 20 which is blocking some wifi device to work, but at least my wifi is working fine, so it is not probably the problem. I tried airplane mode FN key to turn it on / off etc.. but nothing. I searched some Bluetooth enable option in bios, but there is nothing.. Problem of drivers is that they are branded to Dell / Lenovo etc, so installers are failing to recognize the device, i tried to extract *.exe with 7 zip to get drivers *.inf? Has someone experience with these combo cards? Its normal than Bluetooth device is not autodetected?

I was looking for usual suspects and in nSP3 are these: Internet Connection sharing ICS Client 5.2 Microsoft IPP Client 1.0 Microsoft L2TPIpsec VPN client.. Im not sure, if installed them, probably some, but i dont know how to find out and how to uninstall them.. nSP3 has nothing like list of installed components when i start setup wizard again.. and nothing is listed in Add/Remove programs windows wizard.. or in windows components setup. But i find out some interesting thing, i tried to check, install original internet sharing component and got this interesting message, it could be clue what is wrong.. I have NIC list in Device manager, as in image above. Other interesting point is when i do some networking change, its using files from sp3.cab, so they are probably some updates/ changes.

Im not 100% sure, or i dunno how to check it, after installation, but i have here 3.64 installer, so it would be probably it. I do not have reason to install it again and again when its broken, but i have some fine tuned machines / images with this major flaw.. I dont really remember any errors with installation, as i wrote it worked fine, until some network configuration changes. Im not even aware any other problems with machine, except this thing.. All seems to be properly setup and installed, i would undertand some bluescreen, NIC driver code, but this is something new.. So question is, if is possible somehow test network services / component piece by piece TCP/IP has like 7 layers, so if possible to discover on which layers it fails, its not able to obtain IP from router.. if i set static addresses its still not working.. and ping is failing something in configuration is broken.. some core component is not working, or its these some dead write bridge NIC / dead NIC or something like that.. but i removed all old Nics in Safe mode, even not used devices.. Only interesting thing is that ping localhost its working fine.. im not sure if it is using all network TCP/IP layers and services, or its faked call, which its outside of network setup. I tested route print output its the same on working and not working machines, except ip adress which i now inserted as static, its from the same range, so it should work fine..

I'm was using: U98SESP3 , i installed the most of the updates, which were describing as improvement or fixes. Its not so simple, Networking is working after installation of updates.. Until, i try to chance something with networking, replace NIC or install new protocol like IPX etc, after that something gets struck is impossible to make it working again, after NIC and all protocols removal etc. Something is broken / stuck in system. I also tried to copy image Windows to multiple new physical / virtual machines, there whole HW is redetected and reinstalled, even that networking never get fixed. This way i would be able to simulate it again (i simulated it multiple times on different machines, i have snadshot i can revert yes).. but its not fix.. reinstall whole system because NIC replacement, or because protocol addition sucks.. So i would rather to fix it and look into that DHCP service or other network services why they are not working.. i will try that SFC check, Update: 1 dll corructed, restored, retested, problem not fixed. I tried to find network related drivers and their version if it helps.
-
From time when i first met this problem i simulated it losts of times on virtual and physical machines, its still the same after time or some change Win98 SP3 networking get broken.. So i would say that some SP3 networking files are bugged, or broken, or incompatible with vanilla ones.. during some update or hw installation is maybe some vanilla file used to replace SP3 one.. I would really like to know which files are responsible for Win 9x networking.. and replace them one by one. Telnet is broken too, cant connect. Winscp is not working - route problem. When i use MS configuration utility (Winipcfg.exe), im getting DHCP server unavailable, when im trying to renew it.. I dont obtain right ip adress just default packets are not returning from router.. Machine is not getting ip adress. ipconfig shows empty gateway. Symptoms same with all Nics, drivers installed, not errors, but networking is not working.. and ping is failing... I never that this problem with vanilla Windows 98 version or official updates.

I any buy any 4xxx.. if it will help to make it working.. but it seems that even Steam will end Win7 support in 10 months, im sure that there are some work arounds, but still. I used Windows 7 as fallback and for some older games.
-
Hello, its GeForce RTX 40xx on Windows 7 dead end? Make sense even try? Or did someone try? I mean, i can buy it, its faster or i can buy slower Geforce 3xxx or i would have to live without Win7 on primary graphics card, i can use some secondary Geforce 750 TI i guess..

Driver Packs for Windows 95,98/98SE,ME

MPXPlay is one of very few new programs which are able to use AC97, it has some own code for make this happens as Q2DOS for AC97, Realtek HD.. but its not classic Dos Sound blaster driver which would help you with games. I doubt that someone after 20 years will write SB emulation year for Dos and AC97, Realtek HD, but everything is possible, but it would take lots of time. More chance is actually HW mode, i know at least 1 mad Estonian capable it, he already made own ISA new sound card.. but it will not help you because you have Notebook, notebooks with wrong configurations are dead end. If you notebook would have at leas LPT port, there is chance, to get some Adlib sound through it - https://www.serdashop.com/OPL3LPT maybe of MB would have some LPC chip and using some soldering and some card bay, it would be possible in future, but it would be pseudo notebook experience, Notebook with big box to make it working.. and even that LPT soundcard needs lots of game patching.. memory command - as every command dos will give you help with: "mem /?" to print help, remember command parameters from top of you head is silly Linux admins ways. Thread is some thread about EMS, i dont know all answers. https://www.vogons.org/viewtopic.php?f=61&t=60451 it but you have to fiddle with memory blocks locations.. its auto is not working and if you finally load it, you can continue to fiddle to get even conventional memory, in my files are examples how to change locations.. Its really per machine, there is not universal super parameters, even some people claims it. Without at least some phone photos of you settings and error message, there is not other than general help.. mouse\cdrom\USB - mouse is most simple, you can use good old mouse.com - which is using more memory, more sofisticated is ctmouse.exe both are in my package, ctmouse is default. USB - forget about it best you can get is some Bios USB to PS/2 fallback bios settings, which is on some boards not working correctly, that is why even on new boards make sense to use PS/2.. even for modern OS, for example, when OS is inicialized and need to press key for safe mode and USB keyboard is for seconds dead, because its not inicialized you have problem.. if USB is not working you have problem, PS/2 is always good to have. CDROM - again its in my package, you need to 2 parts.. drivers and some handler or how to name it. Driver -sys detects on your CD-ROM if IDE/Sata etc.. in my files are 3 major drivers, you need select right one. Handler - MSCDEX and SHSUCDX, first one is from MS old one, second one is more modern it supports even virtual CD-Rom images (not without CD audio its not implemented, it maybe would need HW mod). Again you have to read these config files, i added lots of comments into it, at the top of is settings (because of Dos design its starting in Config and its call sections defined in Autoexec based on selected mode and autoexec settings is influenced by setting at top it), to select want you want, there is not silver bullet.. Silver bullet is possible only on game basic, something like GoGs game Dosbox packages, where you dont have to care about it, you just run executable and usually its working fine.. If you want to continue really create here other thread. -

I never heard about such thing, maybe it has some SB emulation in Windows 98 drivers, but that would be all. -

This not enough, there are important parameters and error messages. Notebook is always bigger problem, VRAM and video bios rom size, are two different things. AC97 with this sound card will native Dos sound never work, there is only very few programs like modern videoplayers and Q2Dos Quake2 port, where these soundcard are working. With this soundcard you have only 1 possibility and that is Dosbox (there is also Win98 port), there never were Dos drivers for AC97 cards. If you want notebook with Dos sound support, you would have to get something older with soundcards with dos drivers..
