Been trying to get a working 486 for dos gaming for some time. I found a compaq presario cds 660 at a thrift store for cheap and it seems to work.
Looked around for info but can't find much about this model or its parts.
Hoping someone here has some knowledge about this and what I need to upgrade.
This is what I know so far:
Cpu- 486SX2 66hz
Sound- Soundblaster 16 CT1770
Video- Tseng labs Et4000/W32I (on board)
3.5 floppy and cd rom drives
So I guess the first questions I have besides what anyone knows about this machine, would be:
1. Can/should I upgrade the cpu to a dx over the sx?
2. Is that SB16 OK? What will compatability be like?
3. I know the Tseng Et4000 card is supposed to be pretty good, but what about the on board version?
Thanks in advance for the help!
