Time to get the parts box out
Posted: Wed May 14, 2014 8:06 pm
So i have been wanting to play some old games recently.
also i picked up a roland MT-32 from ebay that i want to try out with oldschool Wing commander and stuff
I dug the parts box out of the shed and i mostly had enough to put together a sweet old system (would have been my main system back in the day lol)
Gigabyte GA-5AA
k62-500
pci voodoo 3
Yamaha 724 sound card with real opl3 chip (mmmmmm FM synthesis)
had a few issues at first and a power supply problem that let the magic blue smoke out of one of the serial port controllers but its coming together nicely.
