My first genuine attempt at a high performance PC was my Core 2 Quad Q6600. 😖

If it doesn't have a socket, chances are that it won't have the necessary hardware for a PS/2 Mouse either.

Probably the coolest thing about Windows pre-95. If you don't like it, you can simply delete it. 😀

I've noticed blurred graphics on Belkin KVMs at high resolutions myself in the past. Aten ones seem a bit better.
Re: What retro configuration would you suggest?
Posted on 2011-07-01, 14:59
Thanks again for your help. Here's the last configuration I found! We'll call it... #4 MB MSI MS-6566 PSU 400W (with selector between 230V and 115V) Intel Pentium 4 2.40 GHz Geforce MX 400 sdr 32mb 512mb RAM DDR (split in two 256 blocks) 40gb Hard Drive Seems a bit too powerful for a windows 98SE …
Re: What retro configuration would you suggest?
Posted on 2011-07-01, 14:09
#4 Would probably be better suited to Windows 2000 than 98SE.

Or an attractive 8 or 10 bay AT case with a three piece side panel design rather than the single U shaped side panel that is oh so common, and at a price that doesn't cost a fortune. And I mean true AT, not just ATX that supports AT. Ask, and you shall receive. http://cgi.ebay.com/10-BAY-FULL-TOWER …

I've actually got Daggerfall running on a 19" Samsung Syncmaster 940b and it looks quite good.

Threw out a perfectly good HP Vectra 33N. 486SX-33 (Upgraded to a 486DX-33) with a Sound Blaster 16 multimedia kit. Still kicking myself to this day. 🙁

Would've been right over a mounting screw hole. I've got a mobo that covers it up completely.

Support for LARGE or LBA drives? I've tried to find this out myself and only came up with some hacking guides for the Award bios.

Second attempt: Thought it was interesting that my memory benchmarks seem quite off-pace compared to everyone elses.

All of the other parts seem to work. I'll do a loopback test on the ports to make sure though. I'll post benchmarks maybe when I get a chance.
