I thought MEMMAKER only runs on a 386 or later. Is that right?

Thank you very much! That got it working on my 386! I will copy and edit the files to try to get the game to run on the 286 at my parents' house, which has a Sound Blaster 8-bit, and on which the game would also not run. It may not run there anyway since I don't think that computer has more...

Help, anyone?

I bought an original copy of Pepper's Adventures in Time (1993)! Its development name was Twisty History. This is one of the Sierra Discovery Series games, which also included, among others, Mixed Up Mother Goose, Mixed Up Fairy Tales, EcoQuest 1 and 2, the Dr. Brain Trilogy, and Quarky and...

Update: I've got a much better idea of what to do and how, now that I've spent another year working on vintage computers, evolving my home setup, and learning via YouTube and stuff. I'm ruling out Unix/Linux as a host computer. I don't know either of them at at this time I have no desire to...

HP Vectra 486/66U, Connecticut, US. Looks like it has an aftermarket internal speaker set added to a drive bay. I remember LGR reviewing one of those. 😊 https://www.facebook.com/marketplace/item/658790391770326 Seller writes: "Has stereo sound, TV tuner card, 32mb memory. Works great!"

I didn't realize I could literally just change the COM port in the Properties. Wow! Here is the number of permutations possible after I look at each dropdown. If I add COM1/COM2 to that, I get 720 permutations to individually try. Can I narrow this down by eliminating some impossible or...

From Computer Reset. I have two of them. Came with no wires or connectors. Here's a third-party page about it. https://cybarcode.com/oneil/printers/label/portable/microflash-2t_mf2t Here are the manual links...

Holy logic circuits, Batman! Now that's a laptop dock. 🤯 https://www.ebay.com/itm/225172668767

The connector you show above has 36 pins. The ones I have have 28 pins. So still in need of an answer.

I got these two external drive cases from Computer Reset. The data connections look like "28-pin mini-SCSI" if that ever was a thing. The connectors are about 1 inch long. Via Googling, I haven't found any connectors that resemble these, nor do I have such a connection on any computer I got...

Somehow the memory just started working properly. I love it and hate it when that happens. I added the internal modem card. The last thing I then had to do was add a wire set to properly remap the CD audio from the SB16 to the Mitsumi LU005S CD-ROM drive. Thanks to a particular wire with...

I just ran across this upload to YouTube by VWestlife. It's a 46-minute 1995 VHS tape showing how to sign on to Prodigy, and use it's features. Thought Prodigy enthusiasts would like to know.

An admin or similar moved this thread to Forums/Completely off Topic/General Off Topic. Reason given was "A 2016 printer is not vintage." I don't want to make a big deal of it, but the printer is from 2004, which is a big difference from 2016. It's got a fax line too. The reason I...

Having no other recourse at this point, I downloaded the trialware program VueScan by Hamrick Software. After installing, instantly the scanner works in Windows 10! Here's a preview scan of its own test page. Unfortunately, VueScan seems to be the only program that can do the scanning...
