I'm considering early retirement for my Super Socket 7 K6-2+ system and replacing it with a Pentium III since I have all the parts already. I'm running DOS and Win98Se on the SS7 system.
After so many years of meddling with PCs my memory is becoming a bit fuzzy. On top of that, back in the day I was always about two years behind. When most people were already using Windows XP, I was still sticking with Win2k. So now I have a problem choosing the best OS for a socket 370 system based on a Tualatin Celeron 1.3 GHz.
Would a combination of Windows 98 SE and Windows XP solve all the problems and let me run all the old and newer software along with some DOS stuff? For really old DOS stuff I have a turbo XT as well as a 486DX2/66.
EDIT: just realized I haven't written anything about video cards that I have available. So I have my old GeForce 3 Ti 200, Voodoo 3, Radeon 9600XT and a few more but not sure about models. Back in the day my last PC to run XP was a 2.5 GHz Athlon XP with a Radeon 9800 Pro.
Cheers
