(just a bit of fun guys)
Simple Rules :-
It doesn't have to be installed in your machine/s but you DO have to actually own it yourself so you will need to prove it by taking a picture of it with your monitor in view displaying CF ;)


I'll start:) .....



It has a Trident 3D Image 9750 graphics chip and only has output for a single D SUB ;)

Well dig the oldest bit out then and post a pic in front of your monitor for proof then... it's all just a bit of a game(trying to keep all of us at CF amused) ;)

My HP Pavilion 7810(UK)

Intel Celeron 700MHz
512MB PC66 RAM (upgraded from 64MB back in 2000)
8.4GB HDD (used to be a 20GB HDD, but that died)
Windows XP Home Edition SP3 (Upgraded from Windows ME in 2005)
1MB Integrated Video
 
ive got a game that requires 4mb of ram and ms-dos 5.0 or higher or windows 3.0 for online documentation. Ill post pics in a lil bit......
 
uuuhhh.... i used to run wolfenstein on a compac made 10 years ago.... thats the most ghetto shit i can come up with right now.. aside from my cousins mac hahah
 
486DX with 16mb RAM and 1mb video card

Its an AST (lol i dont think they even exist anymore)

It has ISA slots, the bios has the millenium bug, and it doesnt boot from cd

It has an ISA token ring network card lol

Currently runs NT 3.51 (wtf i can get firefox 1.5 running on it!)
 
i had a "multimedia computer" than ran dos/3.1 and the 'bonus' feature that made it the multimedia computer was the "Streaming fast Intel Overdrive cpu, at 66mhz with new MMX technology, and for your music needs, a CD-ROM drive!"
The cpu required no cooling device, it has a small black heatsink on it, like, small than my MSI K9A2's southbridge cooler... the CDROM is 1x speed :P
I'll see if i can get a pic of the processor, i threw the rest, except maybe the 4mb sticks of ram
 
Compaq Presario 5190

-AMD K6@400mhz
-256mb ram
-3D Rage LT Pro AGP 2x (ATI)
-14gb hdd
-Win2000 (Updated from win98)

I've got to dig out my old Amstrad CPC464 , 64K personal PC with built in tape drive
(the keyboard is actually the computer too with a Monochrome green monitor(I couldn't afford the colour one :( ) ;)

Mine was slower. 486DX at 20mhz , it had no MMX or anything as it want Intel , it was before the pentium was out, it was made by Cyrix. It had no heatsink.

That would be the most ridiculous. I want to see it. haha
 
My old(est) computer was an Intel 486, but I don't own it any more. It was running windows 95, and when I had it, I never knew what means disk space, RAM memory or stuff like that.
The oldest computer I still own is an Compaq (built about 10-12 yrs ago), Intel Pentium II 400 MHz, 128 MB RAM, Windows 2000 Pro (updated 1 year ago from win 98), ATI Rage 3D (4 MB) video card, and a 6 GB HDD. I still use it's keyboard, since my new computer's one was damaged by some juice :D. Anyway, it worked very well until the hard disk (western digital) became too old and crashed. I had to buy a new computer then (the one I still use), to be able to format it and make it work again (only 5 and a half GB out of 6).

I still use it when my sister uses this computer to write programs in Visual Studio 6 (later versions wouldn't fit on that "hudge" hard drive).
