I tried to install Windows 98 on my 386 66 Mhz PC and could not get it to work again. Could not reinstall a operating system either?

Anyway I bought a Compaq Presario 5635 at Price/Costco. Seems pretty trick. And I thought my next system would be custom built. It cost less than systems with less features advertised at Dell, etc.

There is a review of the a similar model in Boot magazine ( minus the flat screen monitor and Diamond Monster II video adapter).

Also the motherboard has two IEEE 1394 ports, and 128 Meg of Ram installed. Haven't seen any motherboard with IEEE 1394 ports in Computer Shopper yet.

The documentation is less than I would like. I think it has a 8 Meg ATI Rage Pro LT or something.

Anyway does anyone know where I can get technical manuals or info. on the Motherboard and video card in this box?

Thanks.
