I just recently finished moving and had to get rid of an entire room of Commodores. Didn't think I'd have the room but with some creative unpacking... ;) I want to re-start my casual obsession but I'll be honest I'm bored with Commodores. While they were the computers of my youth I also...

Going through piles of old software and one of the discs I came across is for the Asound Gold ALS 120 and Asound Express. Old PCI combo modem/sound card. Drivers appear to be for Windows 3.1, DOS, OS/2, NT, 95. I'll be making a 7z backup but if any want a copy let me know. PCI Modem Master...

Local pickup only. I'll let it go for a mere dollar. Reason being is I don't have an open system currently to test it with and don't feel like pulling apart one of the others. I had a gentleman drop ten Pentium II systems on me and it was literally shoved into the drive bay but not hooked up...

Here's the deal: Locating the Windows 98 Driver Pack got me thinking about all the issues we run into finding drivers for older operating systems and hardware. Vendors disappear, websites disappear. My suggestion is that we work towards forming a downloadable driver pack that can be used to...

A few years back someone had created a driver pack for every graphics card so it could be installed on Windows 98. I can't seem to locate it anymore. Does someone have this and could share it with me please?

What are some of the best or most enjoyable retro/classic/vintage computer web sites out there? Not just for discussion of old computers like here but blogs that document their love of old computers and operating systems. Complete with pictures and videos. Plus, has anyone attempted to pool...

Had an issue with a PSU that began crackling and putting out an electrical burning smell. Immediately shut down the system it was in and after about a day I pulled it apart. Looking inside I see one (1) capacitor that seems to have burst the top and has leaked a small amount of a pinkish...
