The Retro Web - Drivers archive

The Retro Web The Retro Web - a large repository of drivers and BIOS firmware for motherboards. This is a project aimed at documenting as many pieces of hardware as possible, built entirely by volunteers, who code for the site/add new entries in their free time. Among other things, on the pages of the site you can find documentation and manuals for retro equipment. There is a separate replenished section of device drivers. go to >>


Vogons drivers - Vintage Driver Library

VOGONS Drivers This is a collection of drivers for vintage hardware, as collected and contributed by the upstanding members of the VOGONS Forums. When it comes to drivers for graphics and sound cards, peripheral equipment, I usually look for them on this site. What's good is that Vogons not only provides drivers, but also images of native driver CDs. go to >>

Old-DOS.Ru - The largest archive of old programs in RuNet

DOSDays Resource This site will be of interest to the Russian-speaking community, because it is completely in Russian. It is a huge community-collected archive of old software with over 22,800 files. At the same time, the site contains not only Russian programs, but also English-language versions of the main software products of the period we are interested in.
In addition to programs, the site has a constantly updated database of drivers for various retro devices. I advise you to visit it, and if you do not speak Russian, you can use Google translator. go to >>
