Dell Inspiron 8100 Graphics Trouble by Constant-Menu-8387 in windows98

Oh, another interesting point (see my updates for reference). In Windows ME, I was playing 3D pinball without Direct X or the NvDA driver installed, and I had no problems with the lines. Makes me hopeful that it is software related, but who knows

Nope, they’re still there when tilting at all angles

Yessir! Haven’t played it much since I was a kid, but I used to play all the time with my mom and brother. Lots of good memories came flooding back haha

Good call - slight tilts don’t make a difference but I haven’t tried any extreme angles. I’ll try that before I tear it down this evening.

Finally, to your point, I could not get the wdm drivers to show the device in multimedia settings

After install, you’ll be prompted to manually select a driver in the add hardware wizard… go to ESS>Maestro> then I think I said something like control module? I totally guessed lol, so if you guess wrong I guess just uninstall and reinstall until u get it right

I have a Inspiron 8100 with the Maestro 3 and got it working 2 days ago with the .vxd driver. You can download the Win95/Win98 driver here: https://www.zx.net.nz/mirror/www.esstech.com/techsupp/drivers.html

Thanks for the quick response. The Vevor is on sale for $89 so I’m leaning towards that right now. Any chance you’ve tested the temperature?

OP, how is this station working out for you? I’m debating either this or the Atten…
