@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...

@jonn_blanchard

Hmm, what boards you have there besides SCSI? I already have enough SCSI boards, although not enough sound boards.

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

I think my parents still have a CD I burned for them years ago of 80s music that I got off of Limewire as a kid...
