I had that "Nokia" case for my old Athlon T-bird build! It's called that way because... well this: 🤣

Cool!
I think I had a Nokia 8850 at a point,but never knew that there is a PC case designed like that.
Also,the brand of the case is "Human",but I couldn't find anything about it on Google images.

No,it's not the NB cooler 🤣 It's a old EPoX heatsink I had that I attached with some glue.
If you look closely in the middle of the picture,there is the NB heatsink.

Going on,with another update:
Installed Flash,and tested it using a 1937 cartoon (Porky's Railroad).144 and 240p work fine.
360p and 480p also work fine,but as long as I don't move the mouse.

I also found a CD with some games on it,along with Chicken Invaders 2.Does anyone remember Chicken Invaders 2?
I used to know that instead making a tune of their own,InterAction just took the OS/2 Warp 4 startup sound and put as their theme.

Back with good and bad news:

Bad news

Tried flashing my Radeon 7000VE's BIOS and now it won't POST with it.I'll try saving some money for a 9250 128MB.

Good news

Got another BIOS to flash,the latest BIOS for AOpen AX4SG Max II.Other than the inability to boot from a USB pendrive,it can boot from everything else and has pretty good BIOS options.
Also,here's a fullscreen BIOS logo that I intend using on the system:
