Is fried memory something that can be replaced or is that not possible?

Well I managed to get somewhat of a picture when I used either the composite or s-video connection. However I can only view the bios boot screen and safe mode of windows. There are several blue and white dots and lines vertically across the screen as well. So does this seem to be a capacitor issue …

I would try the card in another system just for giggles, but other than that, it's very likely one of the caps on the card gave up the ghost after being in storage for so long and such. If that's the case, then it's fixable, but only if you know how. Would you happen to know a good place to get a …

I feel I may already know the answer to this question but just want to ask the masses and see for sure. I recently acquired a 2001 era computer with a P4 1.9ghz and a Geforce 3 Ti 500 from a friend. He found it in a storage unit and told me I could have it. I looked it over physically and then …

Yeah I'm thinking it's not possible unless someone knows a trick I haven't figured out yet. Using Win98 would be DOS 7.

Basically I have my dos 6.22 floppy image files on my win 7 machine. I can hook up my hard drive that I am using for my dos 6.22 build to the win7 machine with a ide to USB adapter. I want to basically install dos 6.22 onto this drive using the dos image files on my win7 machine if that possible.
DOS 6.22 onto hard drive from different computer
Posted on 2017-06-30, 22:24
I am curious if this is possible somehow? I could easily make a 6.22 floppy boot disk but I've discovered I don't have a single working 1.44 disk at the moment. So is there anyway to transfer the system files to an externally connected hard drive (with USB adapter) from my modern Win7 machine using …

I assume that since he is asking what is the fastest that he wants to build the best possible machine for 1993, not necessarily what the average home computer user had. That's the direction I was leaning towards. I am just trying to get the best that someone with bottomless pockets could of pieced …

Appreciate all the replies folks! I will be a little more specific though. My goal is to try and build the best Intel had to offer for each year of the 90s. I have completed 1992 and 1996-99 I'm a fan boy what can I say. So anyways if you were to base it solely on the processors Intel had to offer …
Slowest Pentium v Fastest 486
Posted on 2017-06-27, 23:38
Just curious what the answer to that would be? In your opinions and experiences what would you choose? The Pentium 60mhz or a 486DX4 100mhz ( I think that's the fastest)? I'd like to build a machine that is 1993 geared. I've found that acquiring a socket 4 board and CPU to go with it is gonna be …

As the title says. I have a few 486 and 386 projects im working on. However I've only acquired 1 IDE controller card. EBay doesn't seem to have too many to choose from. At least not in the price range I was hoping to spend. Does anyone have some suggestions on how I could get a hold of some of these …
