Could it be possible build a rig covering Dos/Win98/WinXp period with those specs?
I admit that this one is a very, veeery extreme, if not impossible, project, but i would give it a chance:
using a socket 939 mobo ( Asrock 939 dual SATA2, chipset ULi M1695/ ULi M1567 ), in order to mount a PCIe GPU for the WinXp stuff and a beefy CPU like an Athlon 64 4000+ ( which being a K8, theorically, gives me the chance to downclock it via SETMUL )
using a second GPU ( like a voodoo 3 3000 agp ) for the Win98/Dos Stuff ( selecting AGP initialization from the bios: i checked the user manual, and with the Asrock i could select between PCI, AGP and PCIe inizialization ) in a dual boot system
using an Ess Solo 1 as Sound Card for Win98/Dos and a second Card for WinXp, For a total of 4 cards ( PCIe GPU, AGP GPU, Ess Solo1 and the second sound card )
This one, should it be the BIG ONE, assuming it's possible, here because i'd like your opinions.
