My old IBM XT was sitting in the attic for ~10 years.

This is the No.1 PC in my retro PC collection:

Today I brought it down, did a clean, disassembled made photos, reassembled.
Changed the videocard to ATi Wonder 1024 - ISA - 512KB (PN 109-00095-10).
One of the fastest videocards possible from ATi for the original IBM XT (CPU), has 512KB RAM.
This is a 16b ISA working in 8b ISA mode. Has both VGA and EGA outputs.
(Tried IBM 5151 monitor and an LCD at the same time, does not work. 😜 )

The HDD was stuck, did not spin. WD40 on the axis and a 10 minute manual spin solved the issue.
The FDD was also suck. It did spin, but the stepper motor was stuck. WD40 plus some grease on the head rail a bit of back and forth movement solved the issue.

Working (again) IBM XT:

Will do a few more pictures tomorrow during daytime.
Also, planing a 8087 FPU upgrade soon.
