Look at his beauty I have just discovered in a moisty barn ! 🥰😍

Dual Pentium II ! AGP, PCI,PCI-X,… ISA !!! And internal SCSI !

Don't know if it works, but I think I have found the perfect setup for DOS/Win9x games ! (And early Linux distros and Haiku/BeOS for the SMP part!)

@jmessager We had the exact same tower, I almost wonder if it's not the one you have now

@mehdi_benadel Ah? It would be awesome !
I found it in a flea market in Morlaix (29) !
Couldn't find anything useful on the hard drive inside, a Windows 2000 installation, a few software installed I don't remember well (maybe flight simulator data?). The HDD crashed on second boot...

@jmessager That would be too much of a coincidence, and one hell of a trip from Lyon ! No reason to look for data though, I think we lost two drives around the time we got that similar tower, and one was completely my fault (was trying to downgrade from a laggy Windows XP, I only had a Win Millenium CD, running the install program broke the HDD). Though I'm not sure if we upgraded to Pentium III during that time and when we switched to AMD Athlon 64
