Revisiting Vintage PC Cards and Parts! | Windows 98 SE Build, Part 1, Sorting the Bins!
In this video, I take an old ATX mid tower PC that I built in 2004 (formerly running Windows XP), and I start preparing it for an install of Windows 98, Second Edition. In this video, I go through the various expansion cards and computer accessories that I have collected over the years and decide on what spare peripherals I want to use on this machine for this upcoming build. Some of the parts that I find in this bin are not run-of-the-mill, so I invite you on this "dig" through the Vintage Bin!
Parts that I will likely use on this machine:
AMD Sempron 3000+ Processor
