@dosnostalgic Baal's DOS port was another one that I thought did surprisingly well at EGA with scrolling, though it's not using the full-screen wrapping method of Keen. It's just kinda efficient, and has a somewhat reduced viewport.

Golden Axe for MS-DOS featured smooth horizontal screen scrolling in EGA mode about a month before Commander Keen.

oddly, the floppy chip is from Apple. the part number is 010-0101-0, which is a special floppy controller chip that supports both GCR (standard Apple II) and MFM. the card has a separate 19-pin floppy port.

the CPU on the card is an NEC V30. it is a faster clone of the Intel 8086. the ceramic chip you can see on the left is an 8087 floating point coprocessor.

it is a PC Transporter card! there are a bunch of custom chips on the board. CGA graphics, glue logic, floppy controller...

well this explains why it was hanging. there's probably some setting on the SCSI2SD that's not exactly right.
