The sliding door did not work when I got it earlier but I fixed it pretty easily. A Pentium 166MHz with 48MB RAM, 4GB Compact Flash card (used a CF to IDE adapter), 3COM network card, and a 2MB Trident Providia PCI graphics card. More pictures

fuck this IBM MWave modem/sound card combo. MIDI sounds awful

I’ve always wanted to take an old case like this and fill it with modern internals. Maybe someday.

That’s the same case ours has! Pentium 200Mhz, 64Mb RAM, 2Mb ATi 3D Rage 2 video card, 2.5Gb HDD here! :D

Last time I used it I was tinkering with really light Linux distros....I had Puppy Linux 2.14X RC5 installed on it for awhile for fun.

Should install Win95 on it again and all the old games sometime...

Look for ATX cases, those are much easier. This case is actually pretty small

Sweet, you can still use XP pretty well actually if you get the proper third party updates

Right now I am having issues getting the HDMI audio drivers to take... the joys of running a classic OS on hardware too new for it.

Try installing it manually via device manager... Had that issue with my 7870 years ago and pointing to the extracted drivers fixed it
