Hello all i just thought id let u know that my new project has been finished.
I found this computer out in the trash on my way to school and it had some bios issues.
Cables,ram,hd,HD cages, and Grafix Card where missing.
I was able to put it together again and test everything out. There was a major issue with drivers for windows to be installed. Because the board is a bit old it needed to have drivers for SATA harddrives and that's all that i had.
Here are the specs
This is all found outside, except for ram and harddrives,cables, and Grafix Card
200gb sata HD (seagate)
60gb IDE HD (Hitachi)(given by a friend)
Plextor DVD Burner
Plextor CD Burner
NIC Card
Asus PC-DL-Deluxe Motherboard
Enermax 600W powersupply
2X Intel Xeon HT Dualcore (i couldnt believe it either)(IT IS A QUADCORE DUE TO HAVING 2 DUAL CORE PROCESSORS)
1GB(2x512mb) Samsung Ram
128mb AGP
Aluminum Chieftec Dragon Case With window with a Counterstrike 1.6 Logo
the first picture is me modding a harddrive cage into the slot
Please tell me what you think!

Looks sweet, that exact case was in the garbage?!?! I'd say you got yourself a good find, I wish I could find stuff like that.....
-
yes it was it was a insane find, and i spent virtually nothing on it to get better i had spare parts laying around and with help from friends who are rich i got it running.
in the second picture i took the Older grey cage, i took out of a 1998 toshiba desktop. It didnt have any cages so i modded one in. I hope u guys like it
PS: THE CS LOGO IS NOW REMOVED.
the guy who threw it away put it on. I didnt. I hated how it was upside down so i just removed it.
Time TO GET SOME COLD CATHODES!! EDIT: I wonder why doesn't anyone reply to the thread I wanted ur opinions:(
-
Looks good for an almost free PC.
-
that would maek an awesome server computer. Since it has got 2 xeon processors.
-
I wanted to have it as a server and i will make it into a server. This thing is basically free only thing it cost me was about 2 days of my life to trouble shoot and put it back together, I have ordered UV Lights and UV cables, which i will put in, i also found some 4inch Blue Cathodes in an older computer that i had so i will put everything in and make a video. I hope u guys liked this project. :victory: :victory:
-
yeah, set it up as a server, get a load of friends and have your own gaming server, set up a site etc.
-
******UPDATE*******
I have now added some Blue 4inch Cathodes to the hard to reach spots and here we go.
UV Cathodes and Cables Will be Applied When they arrive to my house.
AND HERE ARE THE PICTURES!!.
The reason why im uploading pictures to this site is because ive seen so many insane psp mods and not enough computer mods. Its true this site is mainly about psp, and other major consoles, But my love is in computers and I just love doing it.

I like it! Nothin beets mine though, well, mine needs to be revamped and then it would beet all!
-
now all you need to so is charge people to use your server and your set
-
I know im a little late in replying but thats an awesome find! the only computers i ever find on the street are old(windows 95 era) lol
The cathodes are sweet, and always look good in a windowed case. I have a uv cathode in my case but sadly my case is inside my desk so i cant even see it lol. :laughing:
i agree with the others that that is a nice server rig :victory:
