I can't belive you got a display out, I couldn't get it to do that no mater what I did. I was able to get a terminal output though. Like I said, the PC was brand new. No user accounts on it or anything, someone just built or bought this and tossed it out 15-20 years later. That computer is honestly my most bizare find, the Compact Portable being thrown out makes some sense but this just doesn't. I would love to see you go over that book, it had so really nice stuff in it which I think you'd love. P.S. Xenia>Tux, I'll take the badass trans fox over the doppy penguin any day ;p

Re: “why would someone build a custom computer, open it, then leave it in the box?” I watched a video from another creator where they did a retro unboxing and they’d said they only had the system because they had an automation system (for irrigation, I think?) and they bought *two* so there’d be no downtime if one failed. It never did, hence the pristine new system.

It takes time. People don’t throw away computers or computer parts all the time. My advice would be to always check apartments’ dumpsters, as people who live in apartments are more wasteful. I’ve had my best luck at apartments that are in and around college campuses, as college students are the most wasteful and throw away some good stuff. It’s how I built my PC.

My parents took all my old PCs to the recycling site when they sold their old house :( I remember leaving behind a Frankenstein Packard Bell case which originally had one of those slot loading Pentium 2 233mhz (MMX!) which I somehow managed to upgrade to a later motherboard and processor despite a lot of proprietary case connections and also a self built PC from the early 2000s plus a brand new ATX case from around the same era which I never got round to using

6:06 Fun Fact: The side panel ducting was the result of a pair of standards Intel released in 2001 and 2002: - Thermally Advantaged Chassis (TAC) - Chassis Air Guide (CAG) Of course, Intel being unable to make their Pentium 4 chips run cool, they released these sets of standards to case manufacturers so they could build designs that would help keep the chip cool. TAC mandated that the air flow had to have neutral pressure, with an intake fan at the front and an exhaust at the back (and according to Intel, the exhaust fan had to be at least 92mm in size and provide 55CFM of free air airflow). CAG was a component of TAC and consisted of a side panel with venting and a duct to ensure outside air was specifically channeled through the CPU cooler and heatsink. Intel claimed these standards helped avoid internal temperature rises above 3°C and keep ambient temperature inside the case below 40°C. Intel abandoned TAC and CAG with the switch to the Conroe generation (Core 2 chips), as it was unnecessary by that point and besides, there wasn't widespread adoption from the case manufacturers, both standards were not subsets of ATX and AMD chips didn't require TAC and CAG to run cool and perform properly.
@vwestlife
@vwestlife Жыл бұрын
And then when all of that still wasn't enough to keep the Pentium 4 cool, they invented the BTX form factor, which put the CPU and its massive heatsink at the front of the case, directly behind a huge fan.

As a linux user, I'm happy you tried to figure it out, but there's definitely those out there who are just out to stroke their ego by putting people down even if they've figured out the solution, not that such things are appropriate or productive even if it wasn't figured out. But yeah almost 20 year old distro. Nowadays single user mode tends to ask for the root password though so it would've been more difficult to reset. Would've needed a bootable media to chroot in and fix it.

Booting Red Hat to single user will mount the root filesystem read-only. That's what caused the errors, because you weren't allowed to write to disk. Easiest way around it is to remount / as read-write. Not a Linux elitist, but I wanted to pass that along in case you run into this in the future. Awesome video as usual, Michael.

At 6:14 there you showed the tunnel over the CPU fan, saying you never seen it before. My first PC, a NeoPC A123 (good luck finding anything about it online) has this. It came with a schoolarship edition of Linux, or something along those lines, a Motorola modem card, 512MB of DDR2 RAM and an Intel Celeron 420, plus an 80GB HDD and a DVD read/write drive. The machine itself is from around 2008. I still use that computer with Windows XP, with many of the software you showcased on your channel. Just wish I could upgrade its RAM, a friend sent me DDR2 sticks but they got lost in the mail and I cannot find them locally.

Having played with RH from back then and earlier, I have a certain affinity for it and Fedora and CentOS. I played Tux Racer a lot, and there are keys for speeding up, slowing down and jumping, you just have to figure out how they're bound and/or change the bindings. I had a lot of fun making and editing maps for it, they were simple gray scale height maps. Back then I thought that game was huge, it was like 10mb, but I also started with a 10gb hard drive. It's kind of a shame what happened to Jasmin.

That build is an absurdly good build for a late Win98/XP dual boot setup if you throw in a decent AGP card (that has drivers for 98SE). However, I think it'd be better off if you at least kept an image of that old fedora install. I use a similar type of system with a different board with the same chipset, it's rock stable and shreds anything in 98SE with ease while having enough power to handle the vast majority of XP era games.

Here is a Theory on why this pc was basically placed back in its box and never used, and this is going based on the environment i was around between the years of 2002 and 2007. and this was just based around the twin cities area of minnesota. there was quite a few liquidation ware houses you could go to and buy things really cheap which had mostly electronics actually the one i frequented the most was in a old circuit city store.. in brooklyn center minnesota, the early years, i would see a lot of old 98 and ME machines new in box, as well as ps1 games and n64 games, mice keyboards, radios just all kinda of electronics VCRS VHS Tapes , by the time 2006 hit, we started seeing older windows xp machines, dreamcast stuff, early print DVDs laser discs, and it was different basically every time you would go, kinda like a thrift store and they where only open on friday saturday and sundays and they sold most things by weight, and some at a very low price in general. and what may have happened in this case the person got this at a good price at the end of its life span, it got liquidated out to another place, and then sold to the guy, not knowing it was a linux machine, and didn't know how to use linux because back in those days linux users where far and few, its much more accessible now and known, and prob was like this isn't a windows machine and put it back in the box and stored it away

@@RealEpikCartfrenYT Hardware compatibility issues? I had way more success in linux with obscure hardware than windows I agree with the thing you sad about Ubuntu though. Linux Mint should be the deafult distro for begginers. Also, it's not that hard to use. Easy distros don't even require the use of the terminal. I wouldn't call it "experimental", it is very stable.

Looks like this computer has about the same specifications as my older Toshiba laptop from 2004. This PC is likely from 2003 or 2004.
