I've recentlly reinherited my old PC from college, and I want to turn it into my Dos/Windows 98 gaming PC. Most of the games I want to play are from the 91-99ish era as I can play just about anything newer on my main computer. Here's what I have:
System: Gateway 2000 P5-120 - Circa 1995
OS: Windows 98 SE / DOS
Processor: CentaurHauls x86 Family 5 Model 4 Stepping 1 - I'm not sure what this means, but it's a processor upgrade. I remember that much. I think it's a Pentium 180.
Video Card: Maxtrox Millennium PCI 2MB
Sound: Ensoniq Soundscape
Memory: 64MB - Soon to be 128MB.
How can I improve this configuration? I want to add a SCC-1 and MT-32 module for MIDI sound, and I may want to replace the Ensoniq card with a SB AWE32. I'm not sure about the video card, I've been told that the Voodoo3 is a good card for classic gaming, but I'm not sure if that's only for 3D games which I probably won't play much.
