I love those late Pentium 3s. It was kind of embarrassing for Intel because they were faster than contemporary Pentium 4s without rambus memory.

I'm going to test how the i815 is doing in DOS with the SB Live soon... Maybe it will or maybe it won't work....

Can confirm SB16, General MIDI works with initial testing. And OPL 'Emulation' still has weird all the pitch variations that I've experienced in other Live! builds. I think it's the CPU speed. Something with the Live DOS drivers can't cope with fast CPUs..

Always good to see old components repaired instead of thrown away. Fuck the capacitor plague.
