Cool! If it is configured for network boot, you could try to insert an EPROM which contains XT-IDE/AT version (if that socket isn't for DOCs). That way, you're perhaps at least able to boot DOS and run some diagnostic stuff. :) It would be so great, being able to do all this - I'm sure there's a …

I've got the Dock II 3546 time ago, for my little ThinkPad 370C (486-DX4 75mhz) - fortunately, and oddly enough, I paid very little for it, on eBay I'm envious now. My 755CX has been crying for one of those for quite a long time. Don't be envious stamasd, I've just been lucky, and patient: I'm sure …

At work I've received a little box of old used hardware, and tons of cables. I've to do a good cleaning of these nice Logitech mouse and keyboard, and maybe start using them in one of my Win9x or XP build:

I think my real FIRST airsim was F-19 - and I've loved it so much - great manual, it was the time of 688 Attack/Sub, too - I can remember. Another old love was Knights of the Sky first, and Red Baron after, with its great VGA. I've enjoyed LHX: Attack Chopper and Chuck Yeager's Air Combat , too. …

I've got the same obscure model, can't find anything of interest on Internet about this model- mine, has got a small IDE to CF adapter mounted on motherboard and removable, with OS loaded on a small sized compact flash. OS is Windows CE, but I would like to try to install Linux in larger CF or USB. …

IBM era Thinkpads are very well designed and documented so working on them is no big deal, they also used decent screens for their time. The only Thinkpad docks I like are the old 486 era ones with a SCSI CDROM + speakers built in. CMOS batteries are easy to replace in 99% of Thinkpads (The 701 …

Not just found in the trash, but saved from certain death - my uncle's PC from mid 90s, who has decided to discard it and give it to me, knowing about my passion for old hardware. I still remember how I was envious of this PC, which at the time cost very much - counting the CDRW, one of the first …

Here are all my badged S3 video cards, I have accumulated and saved over the years - unfortunately years ago I foolishly gave away more of these, when still passion for the old hardware was not as strong as the need to make room - now that I live in my own house, I can store neatly and use/test …

Finally got the card I wanted for my Win 98 build: Voodoo3.jpg What a treasure you got there...a card much harder to find than a V5...especially a boxed one. Dunno about that - I found one way before I got a working V5. Also, nice avatar. Homeworld fan? Here's another Homeworld fan! I hope to play …

I have never been a big user of ATI cards, can you give me some advice on this card? Maybe I can use it in one of my XP builds. It's one of the fastest AGP cards aver made, seconded only by the HD 3850 and the 4670. It's a lot faster (twice?) then the rare 7800GS AGP. Thanks kanecvr, I'm glad to …

A friend who attends a cinema club with me, gave me a 15 year old almost-full PC, owned by her boyfriend - just knowing that her boyfriend is a person who spends in these things, I expected a nice retro PC for gaming, very interesting in the content - although my passion are the first 90s, and pure …

I've got many of them, and I'm using currently more S3 in my retro-rigs, as I've seen they are very problems-free, and so much compatible - although they are for sure not that powerful... I'm using one AGP model, I think 3D/2x in my PIII-based build, and another PCI one, Virge if I'm remembering …
