Back from its inactivity,my Pentium 4 goes through changes yet again.
Here are the specs this time:
ASRock P4VM800 - using Gigabyte 8VM800M-775 BIOS (a small fact all of you may find interesting : early LGA775 DDR400 boards are basically older Socket 478 boards with a new socket)
2.5GB DDR400 RAM - a rare 2GB Kingston DDR1 stick,I didn't even think there would be
Pentium 4 1.8A "Northwood" @ 2.40GHz - board originally came with a SL6PE 2.66GHz Northwood but it was dead 😢
TSSTCorp DVD Writer
400W DeluX PSU - as usual
"Human" case - a few touches in some lightly damaged parts
Western Digital WDC800JD-55MSA1 80GB - removed the 8GB drive in favor of a FAT32 pendrive which works as a HDD under MS-DOS
MSI Geforce FX5200 128MB - good card,but one question : is it DX9?
And that's all. Not listed is a RTL8139D NIC. Should mention I have to tinker with the PCI registers quite a bit since none seem to work with the Gigabyte BIOS I'm using (it's WAY easier to use than the original BIOS)
Worth mentioning,my ASRock board seems to be VERY similar to the ASUS P4V8X-MX.
