One thing I'd like to build is a win98se system based on a northwood pentium 4. I'm a little "foggy" on what would be the recommended
chipset/motherboard for this project. Scanning ebay most of the offerings are of the 845/865 variations and not surprisingly they are
expensive like anything else these days. A new mobo runs between 150-200 bucks easy, crap.
So my question to those of you that went down this road is what pitfalls do I need to watch out for and what specs. did you end up with.
Generally regarding the cpu I was looking at 1.8-2.0 ghz. speedwise, any input would be welcome!
Intel D865GL Pentium 4 2.4ghz. 512MB DDR 400 Quadro4 900XGL 128MB SB Live 5.1 500W 98SE
