Got another HP Pavilion desktop computer that has an OEM manufactured ASUS motherboard that has the following specs:
CPU: AMD Athlon XP 3000+ @ 2.1GHz Socket 462(A)
RAM: 512MB DDR-333 RAM (max: 1GB)
I/O: 2x PS/2 ports, 4x USB (plus 2x headers), 1x FireWire-400 (plus 1x header), Sound Card with headers, VGA, RS-232, Parallel, 2x IDE, 1x FDD, 2x SATA, 3x PCI, 1x AGP, Ethernet
Chipsets: VIA KM400A & VT8237
FSB: 266/333/400*
* Locked by HP, or can be changed with the Advanced BIOS
The system itself came with a USB card reader w/ USB 2.0, 160GB Western Digital HDD with Windows 7 installed, broken HL-DT-ST DVD-ROM/CD-RW combo (broken pieces of a disk is in there), Linksys Wireless G PCI, 56K Modem, and 4 USB 2.0 ALi PCI card.
My plan for the HDD would be to DBan it and clone Windows 98SE onto the hard drive from the 32GB (will use the backup program to backup everything and get it to copy over and re-install certain things that are needed).
Would this be a good candidate for Windows 98SE?
