Hi,
i'm selling my Prometheus PCI bus-board with full set of cards. It's the fastest PCI if we talk about 3D on the "market" ;)

Here they are:
1. PCI bus-board, excellent condition, box, 100% working;
2. S3 Virge/2MB, 1024x768 in 16bit;
3. S3 Virge/4MB, 1240x1024 in 16bit, 1600x1200 in 8bit;
4. Realtek 8029 network card;
5. 2 PCI risers;
6. Ethernet-to-power adapter which i used as extension cable for network card;
7. CD with drivers;
8. adding two Voodoo 3 cards - not working, no physical damages... just stopped to work. Amiga either not boot with them or GFX card is not visible in Picasso96;


Notes:
- i have some screws and metal elements for bus-board but have no sure it's 100% complete, i did not use them;
- S3 Virge runs smooth, like CyberVision 64;
- overlay works on S3 Virge but there are glitches on 2MB version;
- it is possible to fit all (bus-board, gfx card and network card) in A3000D as well as in A4000D;
- when to use VooDoo 3 card, all games runs very smooth. Tested with Wipeout, (GL)Quake 2, Heretic 2, all Dooms, (GL)Payback, Earth 2130, Napalm etc. I had problems with GLQuake only but maybe there is a port which works with this busboard. I don't know. Personally, i was not able to force it to work. In software mode game works 100% OK;

Asking 250 -> 220 Euro for all.

Shipping:
- Europe 12.00 Euro
- Worldwide - just ask :thumbsup:

Interested pending questions...

I have heard that the card will not work with audio cards, although some people believe it should.

Do you know if it works with a sound card?

Nope. Sound cards do not work with Prometheus until you'll find DMA firmware and update the bus-board. No idea, where to find it or how to do it. Have Delfina :lol:
 
Thanks Arti. I will take myself out of line. If they ever get DMA drivers working, it would make it complete.

Regards,

Trying to find a delfina, keep missing chance. I heard the delfina isn't stable for MP3 playback. I used to own a lite 15 years ago and I thought it was very stable, but getting older these days and memory doesn't serve me like it used to.

Good luck on the sale.
 
Problem is to find proper version of delfina.library. If you find it all work like a charm.
 
I have to rise founds quick for my other Amiga related projects, so little price drop! :thumbsup:

This work is still in progress..... I did some Betatesting last month with a new written prometheus.library! The update of the Mach-chips is also in progress and will bei available from E3B (Michael Boehmer) soon!

This is for your information only! Could be interesting for buyers.... :whistle:

EDIT: for Soundcardsupport you have to install openpci you can use a Soundblaster life for example....
 
Mhmmm, I'm considering closing this thread... :whistle: I will check openpci and SB Live! in hours. Thanks!
 
I'm bowing out due to the carriers braking my 4000 before i could use it :-(

Good luck with the sale
