ok yes i am crazy , the case is just insane to try any serios over clocking , its just to small , to compacted. so i set my goals small

LOL

I actually have one of these. It is a great machine for for websurfing. However it sucks for anything more advanced than email. A RAM upgrade is definately in order. But the lack of an AGP slot really limits that thing.

Do what you can with it. But start saving for a MoBo CPU RAM and a case.

128 ram
8 gig
12x dvd/40x
8x4x32x
voodoo3 3000 pci ( yeah no agp really blows ) ocing dosnet help much maybe + 2 fps, and it puts out alot of heat

10/100 nic

i flashed the bios to so i could get rid of that annoying comapq splash screen

i had win 2x on it but 98 SE just seems to work better with it, i even had dual moniters once :)
