  1. I have no system that can do blueray yet, when I tried a player on a system it was the graphics chip that stoped it?
  2. I have a G33T-M2 with a dual core and 4gig ram running WIN 7 rc. System rates itself at 3.5 because of built in intel G33 graphics chip. All the other items are high 5's. Any cheap graphics card bring that up to 5's? PSU in small case only 400 watt so graphics card cant use too much.
  3. Thanks, I found that spot and put in the Key codes from legal vista. A small genuine box was sitting at that spot already. The section that rates the system gave it a 3.1 with the Graphics, intel 945, being the lowest. I am very happy with the mods done for speed, a 1.6gig micro system flies with Vista Ultimate. Moved on to one of my WIN 7 rc systems. Its only rated at 3.5 with the graphics, intel G33, being the lowest
  4. I have a orig, real COA and key for all the systems I have Vista Ultimate on but what is running is a highly modded Vista Ultimate. WHY, because I cant get Vista to run ok on a 1.6gig ATOM micro system without being a slug, so I went to the net to get one that runs great. This Vista takes all updates but 1 so far, boots fast, shuts down fast, runs fast on a 1.6gig ATOM. If I knew how to put the key I have into this VISTA I would but I dont? Is this a legal problem, I own a DVD, COA, KEY for each install of the FAST VISTA. If Microsoft had a product like this I would buy it but it dont. Why do I bring this up? On the last update, Microsoft sent a message that something was different about this VISTA and wanted to fix it? Microsoft should get paid for all installs of its product and I have a legal orig for all installs I have. Like me I have many old systems I will not toss, so if a Vista can be found that works, why not?
  5. Build 7000 64bit Could not get AVG, from MS page on what to use, to work? (https:// pages took forever to load then stopped loading) (MS firewall keeps wanting on) (MS wants to scan with its own scanner) KASPERSKY from same page worked?
  6. @jaclaz Goal, to take a dirt cheap, small, GREEN, unit and make it into a surf the net while having a internet radio station from list at vtuner playing and maybe print something from the net. Units which I have are several X150SE from WYSE and they come in 3 versions, hardware same otherwise. 3150SE 128meg ram, 32meg flash ide, runs windows CE and these will sort of surf net, some sites come up only in MOBILE mode, but if radio on no surf net, radio uses 100% of time. Buy for under 20 sometimes. 5150SE 128meg ram, 64meg flash ide, runs a linux, surfs net way better than CE above but have no unit with media player for radio. Can be made from a 3150SE with change of flash ide. Buy for 40 sometimes. 9150SE 256meg ram, 256meg or 512meg flash ide, runs XPE, XP embedded. Got to try one, will do my goal , radio and surf, didnt have printer. If you look long and hard might buy for 100. Same hardware only changes are op system, ram, flash ide. Op system and flash change easy but ram dont because its soldered down. I dont think XPE would run with 128 meg ram? I didnt think it would work with 256meg but it does. A linux on a USB stick runs on these but super slow on 128meg ram systems, ok on 256meg ram 9150SE but XPE beats it there. Project, get win 98SE running on the 3150, 5150. Ask LITE98 people about their 98 embedded which runs in flash IDE is small and super fast. First you need to have 98SE running yourself on system and then spend a lot of money to have them embed it and thats a bad thing. Have many microdrives and with adapter to IDE got a linux to boot and run on a different system. Microdrive only thing small enough to fit into case of these Wyse units.
  7. A microdrive, a CF flash size card with a very small hard drive in it. I have a system that can boot from a USB floppy, the on board flash IDE drive, or a USB memory stick. I have not been able to get a USB CD player to boot. I have heard that 98SE might start to install on a USB item but that somewhere when 98SE takes over it stops because of no USB drivers? Question, could 98SE install be started on another system that has a Microdrive on it as a IDE drive and then move the microdrive over to the mostly usb system? Or could 98SE be on a USB stick to install on the microdrive? If someway I can get 98SE into the system then USB drivers could be added? System has 128meg ram, high speed internet port, 2 serial ports, a printer port,4 usb ports, on board video and sound, and can take one IDE device on a non standard IDE port that mostly has a flash ide drive up to 512meg in size.
  8. Sorry I didnt reply yet. Too many systems, too many projects. My 2nd 98SE system with more ram, SIS chips, on a P3 running slower has 2 times the internet speed then the Intel 810 chips on a P3? Sweet William did you try out that site yet? On one of my GREEN systems right now. Under 10 watts power use. A Wyse 3150SE, 128meg ram, 32meg flash IDE drive running WIN CE which I dont like. Thanks for the replys!!!!!
  9. Just like you say above, I use my Wyse S90 very small thin client for more secure web browsing. Microsoft never bothers it for updates or anything, the write filter protects it. I have found the ADMIN mode to add or remove what I want and surf the net while internet, vTUNER, radio plays. The XPe is faster than any LINUX in a usb stick I have tried on this S90. I got the image from Wyse but have a usb stick that reads or writes the image to the stick or from the stick so I can copy my altered image to other units or for backup. I like the very small size, can hide it behind the LCD display, speed for a 500mhz unit is fast and nothing bothers it for updates, virus checks, ect. This is one of 12 different systems I have and mess with. Another Wyse unit somewhat like the S90 but with smaller flash drive and ram runs Windows CE. I am sorry but I dont like CE and would like to find something else like WIN 98SE embedded for it? I see 98SE lite has such but dont answer my emails?
  10. I have a etower 633id that has a NC100 V2 card for the internet. The 633id has max upgrades, 1.4gig micro, 512meg ram and some 98se updates? On the Speakeasy internet speed test, windows clocks only 3meg+ on recieve and 768k on send with roadrunner cable. System also has a PUPPY LINUX that on same test, same hardware, pegs meter at 20meg+ on recieve but same 768k on send? While on the net I listen to internet radio, Blues, Bigband, or early rock and windows does this just fine while the LINUX doesnt, droping out of browser now and again, so I use the linux for big downloads only and then have it store info into windows section. QUESTIONS Can I get the windows internet speed faster, like the linux speed? How valid is the speakeasy internet speed test?
  11. Retired from Delphi, repaired engine controlers. Use a Etower 633id which started with 98SE with free upgrade to Win ME. This is 2nd IBM system I bought new. Went back to 98SE and thru the years upgraded hardware and software but kept no records of software upgrades? Ram went from 64mb to 512mb, I think ram upgrade needed BIOS change also because HP bios in unit now? System buss went from 66mhz to 100mhz speed, Micro went from 633mhz to 1.4gig with special micro from Korea? Orig HD. Orig 56k modem card replaced with Lan card and I use HIGH SPEED Road Runner Cable. IE = 6 MP = 9 I use Opera 9.52 not IE Must have USB drivers because most USB sticks work great? I have puppy linux on system also and on Speakeasy internet speed test linux pegs meter at 20+ but 98SE only does 3+, driver problem on 98SE? Classic Media player dont work, it wants a different Ddraw.dll? EDIT Fix from this site is DirectX 9c, so Media Player Classic now works, THANKS!!!!
