Description: This classic Dell computer from 2003 was just restored with Windows 98SE in November 2024. All available Windows security patches and updates have been installed as well as useful programs like Media Player Classic, video codecs, Direct X, utilities, etc. Since this is being sold for retro gaming I tested with a bunch of games from the late 1990's to early 2000's. See the end of the listing for a partial list of games that were tested on this PC and are working with good video and audio. I installed some shareware and abandonware games. NES and SNES emulators, arcade games, Atari, etc. etc. All were working with no or very few issues. Microsoft Office 97 (Word, Excel, Access, etc) is installed as well. See the ebay video taken while testing to show how fast it boots, how it loads and plays various games, framerates, audio demo, etc. Was able to track down and install working Win 98 drivers for the motherboard video, audio, and ethernet. 3D games like Unreal Tournament and Quake III run very smoothly in my opinion. The 5.25" DVD drive and the 5.25" CD burner are both working well- trays open and close smoothly, no disc read errors. The 3.5" floppy drive has been fully tested and works well. There are 3 PCI slots for trying different audio and video cards. The USB ports are all working and they recognize mass storage devices like USB sticks, external hard drives, etc -they need to be formatted in FAT or FAT32 as Win 98 does not recognize NFTS formatted drives. Computer shows very little wear, is clean, and nothing is damaged. Fans are not loud. BIOS battery is good, BIOS updated to latest version available.
