"mode con lines=50" This will not work on Model 30 8086 because they do not have an onboard VGA but a souped up CGA called MCGA that do supports only some VGA video modes. See this: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Multi-Color_Graphics_Array

My vote for Mod Master https://www.vogons.org/viewtopic.php?p=1063034 it plays .mods just fine on a 10mhz 8088 over NFS ...

Sure, it's much better to use the EMS memory for cache or a RAM disk but, if you want to test UMBs on that 808x this is your only option. There are more capable EMS (4.0) cards able to achieve both aims.

Yes The problem is that, unlike EMS 4.0 cards, 3.2 ones do not allow to map memory outside of the page frame so either you use that 64k for UMBs or you use it to bank switch EMS memory pages To be able to have both you need a real EMS 4.0 card

Hmm, the problem is that you have an EMS 3.2 memory board It is not capable of mapping memory outside the 64kb page frame ... Use the FL=0 parameter as instructed, get 64kb of UMBs and forget the rest of the memory

You need QRAM not QEMM (386) https://winworldpc.com/product/qram/2x It can use (E)EMS 4.0 memory mapping abilities to fill memory into UMBs Works perfectly on all my 286s and should work with 8088/86 XMS isn't a memory technology It's an API to access memory which can be extended, expanded or...

You can get original ROM dump here: http://minuszerodegrees.net/rom/bin/sunix_sun-4300.bin Prime did not add the 0s they were there yet. Looking at the disassembled sources there are some spots of what seems (to me) unreachable code It certainly does not look like data but I cannot imagine how...

I'm trying to make this BIOS fit in 4096 bytes. There is a padding directive to make the ROM size exactly 8K: times 07B1h db 0FFh ; Ensure size is romSizeK if I remove it, the resulting binary is 4175 bytes long Almost there but I see that there is further padding with 0s in...

I've had good results with SCSI2SD (V5) http://www.codesrc.com/mediawiki/index.php/SCSI2SD#Compatibility

You need a TCP/IP packet driver Seems you are using an ODI driver intended for IPX/SPX (Novell Netware) instead That won't work

Look at this: https://www.tindie.com/products/glitchwrks/gw-12887-1-ds12887-rtc-replacement-module/

I've found out where the problem is. In file PNPPD.ASM there is this table: ... IRQTable db 9,3,4,5,10,11,12,15 ; Jasper 10/05/94 ... so the fix is very simple Change this to: ... IRQTable db 2,3,4,5,10,11,12,15 ; DRR 18/12/21 ... and problem solved. Notice that this works also...

Quite a few interesting things there ... I'm certainly interested in that Promise DC-4030 ROMs Are you based in Poland?

Maxtherabbit, try this one I used it a lot in the early 90's with, back then obsolete, memory cards. It includes a high memory ram disk and TSR loader as well as full source code and extensive documentation.
