Personal background
It's true, Derg has indeed sacked my 1.4 GHz Athlon. What does this mean? After much delay, hassle, frustration, and heroin, the specs are as follows:




Intel Pentium 2.40B GHz Processor

512 KB cache

Hyper-Threading

533 MHz FSB

(Had to purchase two, one was bad)





MSI Motherboard based on the Intel 845e Chipset (Sadly, the original Gigabyte motherboard to be used, based on the 850 chipset was compromised twice by a bad BIOS ROM and bad AGP slot, damn thing even had 8x AGP, followed by one more Gigabyte this time a GA-8IEXP, then an Intel, finally this)
AMI BIOS (*sob*)

Support for 6 onboard USB ports

Only supports upto 2 GB DDR333 RAM (*sigh*)

And the kicker, only 2x/4x AGP





256 MB PC2100 DDR RAM (Generic, Micron stick got f'ed over)




Sound Blaster Live! Value (least it supports EAX)




ATI Radeon 9000 Pro 128MB DDR Ram (monitor only supports 1280x1024)




One (1) 40 GB Maxtor HDD (only 5200 RPM)

One (1) 120 GB Maxtor HDD (w00t 7800 RPM)

One (1) 10 GB Maxtor HDD (most likely, 10 RPM)





One (1) Verbatim 48x16x48 CD-RW

One (1) Plextor 8x4x32 CD-RW (No buffer under-run support)


One (1) Floppy drive, definitely not hooked up





All in an Antec case with a 300w power supply. Oh, and the bane of the computer is the 256k cable connection powered by Charter.




Well, I guess that's about it.
