Ойын-сауық

In this segment of Retro Reverie we relax and unwind after a long day to putting together and old trashy system and somehow get it running.

    I started filming in dark locations... I didn't have lights so I pointed the cheapest LED flashlights I could find at me... that could help some

    That’s a good idea. I have some magnetic lights from Ryobi that would probably work well.

    I actually have this old motherboard M2N68-LA rev 3.02 with a Phenom II X4 B97, 8GB of ram (2x4GB of PC2-6400U), and a GTX 960. It runs decently well for an old Compaq PC. Great Video!

    That sounds like a solid rig, what do you do with it?

    The nice thing about the AMD 64 is that it can understand 64 bit instructions. So even though it only has a single core it can run 64 bit operating systems. Like... Linux! Check the Fine Manual of the machine or motherboard and see how much memory you can stuff in there. Do a little work with wood and sheet metal to make a new front panel, up the RAM... maybe put in an SSD and load up Linux Mint. You'd have a sweet little machine.

    That’s a fantastic idea! I had no idea about the AMD 64 chips (although it seems obvious in hindsight lol) so thank you for that info. Seems like I have another video idea to add onto the list!

    Nice save. I don't mind Vista as an OS. Looking forward to the next video

    I haven’t been able to spend much time with it, so I’m excited to get it reinstalled on here eventually! Thanks for watching :D

    there is a way to clear the password or can just be restored by pressing a key maybe?

    Definitely. In this case I just didn’t want to go forward because there is confidential psychiatric patient paperwork on this device. I will revisit soon for sure 😃
