Re: Machine Specs

On the official v11 at NonMMX P133, W98 is idling between 74-84% on the FX-8150. Which is a vast improvement to the 35-45% with P133MMX. The RAM has not made any difference in the running speed. On my build from source on 19/06/16 02:17 GMT+1 I am getting less variance in speed, but still 76%-80%. I...

Re: PCem v11 mouse issues

Could it be to do with the mouse control panel within the OS. Changing the speed as different mice seem to work at different speeds.
Just a thought as I have no issues with my 7 button mouse on Windows 10 x64

Re: S3 Virge drivers + Win 3.11 + High Res modes heavy glitc

Firstly, my sincerest apologies for the image there. I was not thinking. :oops: UPerschke, I'm not sure if our installation methods differ in any way, but mine is essentially as follows: Install DOS Install CD Install Mouse Install Audio Install DOSIDLE (personal preference) Install Windows Run Memm...

Re: S3 Virge drivers + Win 3.11 + High Res modes heavy glitc

Hey UPerschke, Below is the HDD image that is the base install of 3.11 with the S3 drivers that I have working. (link removed by moderator - please don't post copyrighted software) I have noticed a couple of differences in the config files. The graphics card appended to the end is different despite ...

Re: S3 Virge drivers + Win 3.11 + High Res modes heavy glitc

Sorry, but I was intrigued by this. I set up the same MB/CPU/S3 Virge/DX and downloaded the same drivers. Whenever I try to change the resolution I have to restart windows, but upon restarting the resolution is just fine. I noticed that you said you are using SVGA, but in the windows setup on Win3.1...

Re: Building PCem

Thanks Sarah. That has made things easier. So I've gotten a stable >97% constant on the SIS mobo with 486dx2/66 running Dos6.22. Running fine with good sound and control. Loving it! 8-) So I think I was trying to run before I could walk with a vague mockup of the last PC I had that ran some of the a...

Re: Building PCem

Out of interest, does the % indicator in the titlebar represent the current %age of the emulated speed? e.g. 100% of a P120.

Re: Building PCem

I have been looking at games. I've installed my favourite of yesteryear - Daggerfall. It never seems to get it right under DOSBox despite now being packaged with it direct from Bethesda. But as I'm antediluvian (well, almost), I still have it on CD, and like to make use of it. Installed under Award ...

Re: Building PCem

Thanks for the info Sarah. I suppose my experience over the years with applications in general mostly supports that, where there are no benefits to 64bit versions of most applications. Like some functions of the 64bit version of MS Office are not compatible with the 32bit version. I think I'll disma...

Re: Building PCem

Why are you attempting to build 64-bit PCem with a 32-bit compiler? That won't work. Yeah, that occurred to me shortly after posting. :oops: I proceeded to get and install MinGW64, and MSYS2 to go with it, but had various other issues then when attempting to build. Maybe if he set up a cross-compil...

Re: Building PCem

Well, your tough love is sincerely appreciated. leilei got me in the right direction, but obviously dependencies weren't met on a fresh MinGW install. I decided to wipe the previous as most of the instructions failes to run/build. Had a few setbacks with cmake and dx8, but overcame those with some d...

Re: Building PCem

Thanks leilei. And I guess then that the zip from bitbucket is just extracted to the MinGW/msys/1.0/home/me folder? This just sounds too simple to be real after the other instructions. So I extracted the whole lot, and placed the batch file in the src folder, got a few strange messages regarding poi...

Building PCem

Hi all, Sorry to be a total noob. I've been using the binaries from the download section and I am amazed by the functionality compared to other PC emulators. However, in certain cases I'm getting 42% in the BIOS settings running on an i5 laptop with 8GB RAM, IntelHD. I have had better results on my ...
