A bunch of old crap...

[MusicallyInspired]

A guy I work with dropped off a goldmine of old ISA cards to me today. A lot of it is modems, NICs, video cards (ISA, VLB), etc. There also might be a couple sound cards. However, I'm not going to keep it all because I just don't have the room. This acquisition of new stuff has finally pushed me to start getting rid of some stuff I already have as well. I'll look through it all tomorrow and see what I want to keep and what I want to get rid of and then I'll post again with the exact models of at least some of what I have with pictures. I'd ask for no more than $5 CAD for any one of them. But that's negotiable, too. I'm not fussy.

So if anyone's missing something for their old hobby computer and I have what you need just give me a shout. Stay tuned.

Ok I've had a chance to look through them all. Altogether I have:

15 video cards (3 of which are Cirrus Logic VLB cards)
11 Ethernet Cards
3 Dual Game Port Cards
2 IDE controller/Sound card combos (they have RCA jacks only....and one has the Sanyo label on it. Weird)
22 Modems

And all are ISA cards. Some of the video cards have what I can only determine is an EGA monitor plug (2 rows of pin holes instead of the regular 3). Here are the brands (the ones with question marks are what I'm guessing the model/chipset number is):


Video Cards:

ATI: EGA Wonder 800, MACH 64, VGA1024DXL (?)
Trident: TVGA9000, TVGA8900C
Diamond: Stealth Pro (?)
Oak Technology: OTI037C (?), OTI067 (?)
Morse: KP 910 VGA
IQS: QP-VGA4 (?)
Tseng Labs: ET4000AX
Cirrus Logic: CL-GD5428-80QC-A (x2), CL-GD5429-86QC-B
Laser: This one has that old monitor port and a switch to switch from what looks like "MDA" to "CGA"

Ethernet Cards:

RMC (?)
SMC
HT/Group-Tek (?)
3Com EtherLink III
EN5200 (?) -this one has a sticker that says it's a 32bit PCI card but it's ISA...weird
D-Link (x2 different models)
AT&T/AMD (?) (x4)

I will post more later on tonight. Pictures still coming. I'm not sure what I want to keep yet...probably most if not all of the ethernet cards for sure.

2 IDE controller/Sound card combos (they have RCA jacks only....and one has the Sanyo label on it. Weird)

Those might be CDROM controllers for the old non-ATAPI drives. Each of the manufacturers (Sony, Panasonic, Mitsumi, etc..) had their own style of interface (all similar, but slightly different). The RCA jacks are for passing CD-Audio on to an external amplifier or soundcard Line-In.

Ah I see. That accounts for the one with only one controller. But the other one has 2 IDE controllers plus a disk controller....meant as an alternate maybe?

Some soundcards had ports for Panasonic, Sony, and Mitsumi CD-ROM drives.
