I'm trying to help a good friend of mine and a former fishing buddy who died a few years ago, to help his widow and son upgrade his computer. The puter is a custom built POS , that she paid way to much money for 3 years ago. The CPU is a P2 /a Intel mobo with built in sound and video. The computer has a 6 meg HD that the builder partion into 2 drives .. I got involved because the OS wasn't working right (drive C was filled and drive D was empty)

The display properties tells me that the video is a Nvidia Riva 128/128 zx. The mobo does not have a AGP slot , only PCI's and a bunch of ISA slots. I had an extra stick of RAM (128 ) that I put in for a total of 192.

I was wondering if anyone has a PCI TNT/TNT2 card lying around in some box that they would like to donate.

The kid loves to play airplane games and likes to play WB and AH .... very very slowly, of course. BTW his Mother has pilot license

Package went out today Fedex. Forgot that I put the
p3v4x in a puter for my sisters kid. Threw in a 440bx board(AGP) and a sound card. Good luck.

All I did was find a home for some long removed components. The guy who REALLY deserves the , is Sprint. He's the one who is taking the time to make a difference.

Sprint I have a joystick just sitting here in my desk that needs a home. Its an old Thrustmaster FCS and I don't have any use for it. It works fine as of the last time I used it a couple of years ago. I also have an Soyo motherboard that I don't know what it will run but it has never been used. If you know of anyone else that needs some hardware its yours also. I have to get rid of this stuff.
