PENTIUM III STRONG
My PC is alittle under the weather lately, although, time has not been on it's side working on 6-7 years running time now. When you power up the hard drive, it sounds like a dwindling muffler on an old used car well on its way to meeting the asphault, or doom. In the meantime, I continue crossing my fingers with each single power up and I have backed up the most significant files in hopes that the days are crashing down to my purchase of a new lap top. What comes with that is the new windows xp which I fear is an inevitable encounter of my computer long journey through life. I have ties to this one currently and even though the scanner struck by lighting doesn't work.......and neither does the start menu, nor the sound system, but I continue on with high regards, allegiance, and abundant respect for my motherboard windows 98 operating system and all of it's unusual blares and groans until the day it powers no longer....God speed
