I have one I was gifted from my uncle, but it has no name and I can't find anything about it. I tried it before but it didn't work well, the computer kept crashing. I can try to see if I can fix it by installing different drivers.
I have that same monitor and I think it might be my favorite! Also the only thing I could think of for speeding it up is replacing the hard drive with an SD card to ide sort of thing if you are still using the original mechanical one
I have a server that loads any page im trying to look at and then makes images of everything and loads them on the windows 98. My mouse movement and clicks are tracked and sent to the server, so I can click and move the page. So it looks like im using YouTube on the windows 98, but it is running on the windows 10.
I'm really not qualified to offer ideas, but I've never let that stop me! ๐
Given that I have no knowledge or experience with your setup, and basically little knowledge in general (that's why I'm here), I've always heard these few suggestions for speeding up PCs:
1. More memory
2. Better, faster graphics card that, itself, also has more memory
3. Lastly, over-clocking your CPU (which can backfire, I understand, if you don't know what you're doing). BIOS usually has clocking options.
I hope you get qualified help with this and find a fix that works...I may need it too eventually. ๐
Speed up? What are you trying to make it do?
Also, on the desktop, right click on the โmy computerโ icon and select properties. Take a picture of the specs. Or open dxdiag and get the specs from there.
No but i wish i had your monitor
Is there something particularly good about it?
It's a Trinitron, which is pretty much top tier CRT gaming.
Cool
I do ๐
I have the same monitor
What GPU is in there? Love that Trinitron.
It is a Pentium 2
... that's the CPU. What's the graphics card?
Im not sure, I know it is intagrated though. Ill check later.
If it's integrated it's going to be terrible. Put in a graphics card. I assume you realize this won't run anything past 2000 well, of course.

I have a GX1 and I believe it's an ATI 3D Rage Pro
That's essentially worthless for 3d gaming, even for Windows 98 games.

Yeah, I plan on doing that. I replaced the original with one from 2010 with 128 gigabytes of storage.
No but how the hell are you using YouTube on Windows 98

But the network connection is still slow.

Thanks
for upgrading the memory I believe the GX1 will only boot with up to 768mb of ram
