Re: Asus P5A-B death ?

Hi, Help,I recently buy a Asus P5A-B and it doesn't work When I push the power button ON, the fan of the cpu turn ON but I have nothing on screen, no beep on startup and no POST. The screen is blank. I have try with different RAM, PSU and CPU (AMD and Intel), I have the same result. The CPU seems …

Re: Vintage hardware collectors heaven.

in Milliways
I'd definitely visit a store like that! :D I think it is interesting to watch it from a PoV from someone who doesn't know how to build a retro PC, but still having a certain respect for that. Obviously anyone would want to go through all that stuff, looking for jewels. Metal Jesus would be more an …

Re: 2007 "retro" C2D XP PC

I think this is a nice no-frills rig :). I've build 'boring' spare-parts systems myself several times, depending from what I had laying around and what I wanted to try out next and the Intel C2D is quite legendary. In a way I prefer reading about these 'average' rigs instead of the ones that are …

In the end it's their own stuff, but that play doh 'incident' is really the extreme end of shameless carelessness and it's just pointless. Often it's also pointless to …

Re: Last cards to only support Win98?

Rendition Verité 2100 comes to mind. It may have Win2k drivers, I'm too lazy to look it up. We used to have trouble getting these to work on XP machines and back then people didn't even want 9x anymore because they considered it too old. Even if they got it for free 🤣

Re: Pentium II Mods

Even if you find an unlocked PII (which were only made until about the first half of 1998 IIRC, they aren't exactly unlocked, but rather limited in multiplier ranges... with the default multiplier being the highest they can use. So an "unlocked" PII-400 will go up to 4x maximum AFAIK. They could …
