>Hi Terry,
My current franken-puter is one that I am most proud of. I wanted a modern
PC that could run Windows 98 and Windows XP with PARIS. The AM2NF3 was the
only AM2 board I could find that looked like it would do the trick, but it
explicitly said that it didn't support Windows 98.
I bought it anyway, and made it work.
I use Windows 98 for testing plugins and using the ADAT card with my LX 20.
I use XP for everything else.
Things to note about the AM2NF3:
The ide cables are in the way of full length PCI cards on all but the bottom
2 slots. I use a magma, so it doesn't affect me. IDE cables that have low
profile connectors may alleviate this, I don't know.
Windows 98 will not work with Nvidia agp cards on this board. I don't know
why. I tried everything I could think of to get a 6200 and a 6800 to work
without any success. I've got a G550 working fine right now. My G400 worked,
too.
You have to disable the built in audio under windows 98. There are no drivers
for it.
Getting 98 into safe mode requires a trick when you've got more than 1GB
or ram. you have to add a line to the system.sb file, I think.
IDE drives bigger that 120 GB require a third party driver. I'd have to
look up his site. Rudolph Lowe, I believe.
SATA drives bigger than 120 GB will not work in Windows 98 no matter what.
I had to disable the port in the 98 driver to get it to ignore the larger
drive.
You need to scavenge the USB 98 drivers from other MB makers. I can send
you these if you need them.
You need to limit the RAM available in Windows 98 using MSConfig to 512 MB
or all hell breaks loose.
As for availability, it's been discontinued. I've been keeping my eyes on
ebay for a spare in case mine dies. I got my first one by ordering it from
a British website. It was never sold in North America. The shipping cost
sucked.
I hope this helps!

There's technology that could make that a possibility now. That could be the
best of both worlds, to my way of thinking.

>I'd ideally like to see the current setup stay, but with additions. I'm not
adverse to alternatives, and a wider Paris community that's not simply revolving
around this single portal. There's heaps of websites dedicated to C64. I
don't think we can probably generate loads more chat simply from better technology,
but there has long been talk that the web interface isn't a fave with some.
The main thing holding back change has been:
(*) Many prefer NNTP, which I understand and appreciate, and there are few
options which do both NNTP and web.
(*) Some prefer this interface.
If we can find an app which has a better web gui but also NNTP support and
is free, we can hang it off this group. People can continue to use this portal
if they wish, via either web or NNTP, while some could hang off the mirror
site, via either the new web gui or NNTP. Posts would transfer automatically
between the two and, depending upon the configuration, probably could be
up on both groups seconds after the post was made. Hence we'd have everything
we currently have, as well as a new web GUI and a second server offsite.
If a server goes down you simply use the other URL. Indeed we could set it
up so that there are multiple IP resolutions on the group URL and hence your
machine would switch servers automatically if one server went offline.
Indeed you could even do that with the web interfaces. You'd have two URL's,
one for each, but if the IP couldn't be resolved it would just point you
at the other server. Hence NNTP users wouldn't even know if a BOX went down,
and web users would simply be automatically switched to their non-preferred
web GUI if their preferred GUI went offline.
(*) No Interruption of service
(*) Complete backup of posts if either server goes down
(*) Two web and two NNTP hosts to choose from
(*) Automatic transfer of posts between all access points within seconds.
This is all if we can find the right software, but the stuff we're currently
running can do most of this on its own so long as we find something which
has both a better web gui as well as NNTP support.
Then we simply need a host. There are options. We could rent a machine somewhere
which is maintained, as that can be cheapish. Or somebody, perhaps Kerry,
might have access to a host machine. Also, I have a backup machine here already
which could be reloaded with different software and possibly do all we're
looking at here, but we'd still only have a single internet connection.
But this thread, in fact, was started to talk about simply changing the titles
on some of the group headings to better represent their usage so that people
know what to expect and where to go for tech support if that's all they want.
Cheers,
Kim.

Hey you guys, don't read every post here.
There's no time for that.
