Hi TOK,
The PC is a socket 7 /amd athlon 1Ghz mobo with 256Mb ram.
Radeon 7000 video card.
Sound blaster PCI 16
Running win98 se and MAME32 .60
I guess I have a wierd configuration. I have a 'central' power switch that turns on power to everything along with a momentary pushbutton to turn on the pc.
The thing is the kids forget to either shut down via start/shutdown computer/ OR like you said press the pc power button.
They usually flip the main power switch (which is just a wall type light switch). This usually results in a hard shut down.
When you power it back on it goes through scandisk. But now I've had to replace the hard drive (the old one has crashed hard)
I've added a new hard drive but was concidering using MSDos. The thing is the TV is garbled until it enters Win98 GUI.
If I go into command prompt start up (F8) or while its booting up, the TV is garbled...
Has anyone else gone through this is or is there a work around to allow the radeon 7000 s-video work with the TV during MSDos?
Ok, looking around a bit on the forum, I read I may need some type of VESA driver to run in MSDos?
