Currently Playing: IBM PS/2 Model 50 Upgrades & Custom AdLib build

In this video, I upgrade an IBM PS/2 Model 50 and build a custom AdLib replica sound card for the unique MCA bus. I also discover a workaround for a McIDE and RAM expansion compatibility issue. Perfect for vintage computer fans, retro IBM PS/2 enthusiasts, MCA architecture lovers, AdLib audio, classic PC sound cards, old-school upgrades, and hands-on retro computing projects. - PCB Prototype the Easy Way.
