You might notice the "Windows 95 Certified" sticker on, but it can't run it.
I had to install DOS 3.11 on the sucker, for it to run.
Holds battery for about 1 second, then it dies.
No bros.. This laptop is antique, i only turn it on once every year, for fun.

Can't you crack open the battery module and replace the cells inside?

There's not really a point for it, when it's only turned on once a year, just for fun.
No reason to damage the plastic.
[QUOTE=Kryzech;31065089]No reason to damage the plastic.[/QUOTE]
It would just be some plastic clips on the inside, a quick job with a flat bladed screw driver.
But I suppose there is a chance you could break a chunk off.

That would only happen if you opened it photonicinduction style.

[QUOTE=rampageturke 2;31051924]Does anyone have the Coolermaster HAF 912 plus? if so, what's the cable management like? and can you post a pic of it, thanks.

It's pretty good. Ask Acapon, I think he posted pictures.
-edit- Ah, that's 922. Sorry. 922 and 932 are both great, I would assume the 912 is p.good too.

you better have gotten a good deal on the 465 because the 1GB 460 is better all around
and raidmax PSU, why

uh a while ago rosewill put out a set of cases that, until the 912 was released, were the best budget cases on newegg, and still are some of the best
that's one of those cases
The GTX 465 was $99 w/ FS (recertified). I usually take advantage of any recertified deals I can find and this is the only one with evidence of previous life since the panel that connects to the case was horribly bent but the card worked perfectly. I went with that psi since I had a $10 code for it making it $30. Total cost for that build was $540.

That PSU is really likely to explode in your face under load, and if you're unlucky damaging other parts in the process too.
If it's really 530W it won't explode. Even under load with my GTX 580 my system only used like 400 watts from the wall on my old power supply.

raidmax is not the most reliable brand and I can't find a review on the PSU so..
Yea, that's the only thing. Raidmax is known, but not really known for performance or reliability.
raidmax is only known for being shit
that specific model has one 12V rail at 20A and a second at 17A, nowhere near 530W
it doesn't meet even basic 80+ and I doubt it has various safety protections

@ Pic 1:
That is actually the inside of a pc, there's a cover that slides on to go with it. I also love how they cool that Pentium III, the CPU had a passive heatsink and a rear case fan blew air to it using a plastic cap :v:
Wow really? I had no idea!

It's just over the summer to get extra money. Have 6 work days left, have been working for 24 days now.
But yes, I feel lucky.
[QUOTE=Smug Bastard;31113537]Wow really? I had no idea![/QUOTE]
I just wanted to say i found it weird that instead of putting a fan on the heatsink, putting it on the back of the case with some crap plastic cover.
