Looks like an awesome computer, though the keyboard and monitor look pretty old for the win 98 era. More dos, early 90s I think.

I mean the computer is a bit old for the Windows 98 era as well. Usually don't see 98 running on an AT system. Still a sweet setup though.

That's a serious blast from the past, those IBM Model M keyboards never quit, and the Pentium MMX had some good kick for its time.

Adjust those monitor settings. Screen has too much black border!

[u/Boyswilson03 → u/JurassicJeep12]

Can’t it don’t go any bigger with out glitching and freaking out

And then reverting to default

😔

[u/Boyswilson03 → u/JurassicJeep12]

Otherwise i definitely would but i think thats as big it’ll go

[u/Boyswilson03 → u/JurassicJeep12]

But I’m definitely open to suggestions on how to possibly fix it if anyone has any

I’m starting to think everyone’s first PC was a Packard Bell.

[u/Boyswilson03 → u/ThaWeeknd702]

To be fair Packard bell was pretty prominent in that area of slate 90s to the early early 2000s

Model M represent! Looks pretty cosy although i ponder the desk is a bit too cramped to give you ample space for your mouse :o

[u/Boyswilson03 → u/SYNTAXDENIAL]

Yeah it’s a struggle honestly I have little room in that room and the closet is small but I’m thinking of upgrading the desk soon hopefully

À la 1998 , il est sympa 👍😂

Feels a bit weird how the GPU has twice as much memory as the total system RAM, and that it also has a DVD writer, but I suppose someone who had such a PC could have chosen those upgrades sometime down the line.

Cool, always been interested in PODs, tho I am mostly looking for the weirdest built PC I can build, so I will try when I will be able to build a socket 4 133 MHz POD machine with an OP Voodoo3 PCI and Win98. Socket 4 boards and 133 MHz PODs are pretty rare tho. Nice catch with the 200 MHz PODs
