Title: HELP - Looking for PC-FXGA DOS/V Driver Floppy Disk
Post by: sabre470 on June 25, 2006, 10:00:50 PM
Hello,

I wonder if anybody could help me, I'm looking for the files that are contained in the floppy disk that shipped with the FXGA DOS/V version, my card didn't ship with that disk so I can't run it at the moment  :(.

Has anybody got this boards here? If so could someone provide me with an image of the floppy disk or just the files?

Many thanks

Sabre

Hi Sabre,

I own the FXGA DOS/V version. I also have this disk. I'll try to get an image of it for you within the next few days. But it won't be before monday next week. I have to search a PC with an installed floppy drive first.

Hi Sabre.

I finally managed to zip those two files which are located on the disc. Suprisingly they are only about 70kb large, I would have expected larger filesize. Anyway, you can download a ZIP archive here (http://home.wtal.de/onheavygraphicrotations/pcfx/PCFX-GA.zip).

I hope you'll continue with your Little Red Riding Hood translation project and finish it someday, so that I can enjoy the game.

Thank you very much!!! Finally I will be able to play with this great card!!!

Regarding the translation, I'm still happy to finish the project, I'm just waiting for the FX emulator that will help me to test and debug the translation quicker, I've burn too many CDRs so far to test it...

I will keep this board posted on my progress.

Cheers

Sabre

Hi all,

I finally had time to set up my FXGA and it's already up and running in my PC!!!

It's quite easy to set up and works fine with the DOS version supplied with Windows 95 japan version.

I could'nt resist to play Nnyu and it's quite a fun game actually, it's quite bizzare to see the PC-FX generating some 3D graphics, it's definitely worth the money I put in it.

I tried a few demos as well, the power of the 3D chips seems to be on par with a Saturn but I'm not sure it is being pushed to its limit by the demos.

I will take some shots as soon as I can...

Thanks to Nutribrain for supplying the drivers!!!

Sabre :D

You're welcome!

Sometime when I'll buy an old PC to try the PCFX-GA myself, I'll propably come back to you. I'm not quite sure where to get the japanese Windows 95 Version and I don't know which type of card slot I need for the DOS-V card, ISA, VESA or...?

The DOS/V card works on an ISA slot. For info, the PC-98 card needs a C-Bus slot.
