I do have some slow down apps - bremz, moslo, and myslo. Never tried any of them, which one is easiest to use for DOS?

Decided to ratchet down my P3 rig to play DOS games from 94 on up. Planning to use a 233mmx Pentium on a SE440BX board with a Starfighter 3D 8MB AGP, 64MB ram, 40GB hard drive, SB 32pnp. Still will run win98SE for early 98 games and such. My question is will I still have speed problems with the DOS …

So from the responses downgrading to a tnt2 (got a tnt2 ultra agp) would be a better match for a 450 PIII? If I do this what era of games would be effective for this - say 1998 to 2001?

Currently running a Geforce3 Ti200 128MB with a P3 450 win98SE system. Would a Geforce4 4200-4800 make that much of a difference? Most of the games I'm running are from 2001-2003 era (Return to Castle Wolfenstein being the most demanding). I'm new at this therefore don't know if it's worth the …

Wanting to look into building a XP rig to "fill in" the gap between windows98/dos and current games. The Dell XPS models (400???) seem about right for a high end XP build (Duo-core and etc.) but what about the Xeon chips? Overkill or not applicable for games? Thanks ahead for any comments!

Currently I have a slot 1 system made up of the following: 450mhz. P3 384mb ram Geforce3 Ti200 128mb 40GB HD SB Live 5.1 My question is will it make much of a difference performance wise getting a slot 1 850mhz. or a 1ghz. slot 370 setup for high end win98 games? Would it make more sense to just …

Appreciate the comments on windows XP, but can anyone tell me if a top or bottom mounted PSU would be better for a ATX 478 mobo build? Maybe it doesn't matter, just checking.

Wanting to build a new system from scratch for XP and was wondering if they're will be any installation problems buying a OS disk from Ebay? Also in picking out a case should I go with a top mounted or bottom mounted power supply?

Regarding Star Wars Battlefront, meant the 1st one that came out 2004 or thereabouts. Need an i5/7 rig for the new iteration. That's the thing on retro computing, so many ways to "skin a cat". Probably going to look for a 370 or a low end 478 set up with a 5xxx series Geforce. The sound card issue I …

Wanting to play late win98 games - Star wars Battlefront, LOTR - Battle for Middle Earth and etc. at whatever resolution would be best for a 24" flat screen. My main concern is getting things hooked up on a modern case's front panel - can't seem to find a SB card that's compatible unless it comes …

Getting bored with my beige box and decided on getting a modern black case for a high end win98SE rig. Any recommendations on the following components would be welcomed: CPU - figured a P4 2.0 or less Mobo - prefer one with usb/audio headers for the case's front panel hook ups and AGP slot. Video - …

This may not exist but have to ask! Is there a PIII mobo out there that has onboard connections for front panel case usb/audio. If not then resign myself to a P4? This is just for a windows SE build so figured a P4 would be overkill.

Would any of the early P4 dell dimension models work OK for windows 98SE games and such? Finding quite a bit of them on Ebay.

I've no luck finding parts for a P3 build for mid-late win98 games so figured I'd try and find some early P4 dell dimensions for sale. Seems to be a fair amount on Ebay and the like, but not sure what models I need to focus on. Seems like the 2600's are out since they don't have AGP, any …

Got a Kingwin front panel add-on with a temperature probe but have no idea where to hook it up. It comes with attachment stickers and the included diagram shows the probe being attached between the cpu and it's cooler, but I got a slot 1 P3 so the diagram is not applicable. Anyone out there have any …

About ready to give up looking for a slot 1 board for my P3 coppermine chip so thought maybe an AMD alternative would easier to come by. Know nothing about them being an Intel guy, any suggestions please?

Since I'm having trouble finding a beige case with front panel connections (USB/audio) thinking about getting a "modern" black case that has them. My question is how hard is it going to be connecting the panel connectors to retro mobo and sound card. Mobo is an Intel SE440BX and the sound card is a …
