My 2002 PC - Up and running again!

I'd rather update my laptop than that ****ty thing Me and my Dad decided to use it for Work and School use. I may download SP4 aswell =]

Our first computer in 1998 ran Windows 98, had like 10 GBs, 256 RAM, and cost ~$800. Now I look at that thing and laugh.

I love it lol. It's pretty fast and so less detials. Looks so cool.

Just buy a whole new system, that one will be dead and doomed. I'm not sure how many programs can run simultaneously with a 1.2ghz Athlon, doesn't seem likely that it's alot

You made a thread about installing Windows XP?

yeah no one cares

I didnt install Windows XP silly, if you read it then you know what Im on about.

Daniel:

It runs Firefox (Bittybay and MMOCCF open), and MSPaint fine

I had a Packard Bell computer, the screen was huge and fat. That's the only specs I can remember.

LMAO. I can't even remember what my first computer was. I think it was something crappy though

In 2002 we as a family got our secound pc. It was the brand new XP! We paid over �800 for it.

It was decent then.

2 years ago we decided that it was not good enough for todays games and We got another one, and this one actually broke shortly after when a Virus killed it off.

Now I spent a good 2 days on it, toatly wiped it and set-up a wireless connection and its working!

Specs:
40GB HD
3GB Back up HD
1.2 GHz
Athlon Processor
256MB Ram

One prob im avin' tho is tht the new Windows Live dunt support XP 2002

Yeah those specs are crap compared to today's standards. Well at least you got it running. You should upgrade the RAM though.

You can buy 1GB Ram Sticks for �13.00 from eBuyer.
