I have been pondering this build for over a year now. What spurred the interest was much like another members on here's thread. I was digging through some of my stuff I have in the closet and came across this. A Ati Rage Fury Pro.
I said hmm maybe I'll do a win 98se build to play old games and such.
I already had a Abit Kt7a non raid board but the only proc I had close to what I wanted was a xp2100+ which is to fast for what I want. So I put the build on the back burner. Then I remembered I had this. A Aureal Vortex 2 SQ2500 sound card.
So I figured I would slowly gather parts for the build while looking for the right processor. I my gathering of parts I came up with 2 other old school sound cards. A Sb Live! and a Sb Audigy with the breakout box.
Now I already have several great socket A coolers.
And plenty of pc133 memory. 3 x 256 mb and 1 x 128mb
The processor still eluded me until now.
I want to give a special thanks to Norton, a member here that hooked me up with a proc and he also threw in a board and 2 extra 256 mb pc133 mem chips. thats a generation older then my KT7A board. Which is even better.
Now I have the back up plan in place also. And may do some testing with some fastert hardware under 98se. The backup plan entails 1 Gainward Geforce Fx5700, The Kt7a board and a Athlon Xp 2400+.
Here's a couple more shots of the hardware.
Planing on getting started on the actual build in the coming weeks.
I also need to give to give some thanks to Bot (member on here). He has sent me the hard drives I will use in this build.
Thank-you so much Norton and Bot
