Hi everyone,

First post here so please be kind. I'm a member on quite a few forums so I do know how they work. Especially when it comes to newcomers asking obvious broad questions that have either been asked a hundred times already or that have no definitive answer....

Having said that..... Here goes!!

Ive just found a heap of old 90's games and am looking at building a windows 95/dos pc. Of all the games the highest requirements is a P MMX200. I did a quick search and this was the best "advice" I found :


"voodoo Graphics or voodoo rush or voodoo 2
a good socket 7 motherboard
pentium 1 mmx 200mhz or a amdk7 200mhz
64 to 128 megabytes edo or pc-100 ram
sound blaster awe 16/32/64
about a 10 gigabyte ide hard drive
windows 95 or 98
a 16x speed cd-rom drive"

Parts I have so far are a creative SB 16 ISA card, 2 creative 3D blaster 12MB PCI cards and an old P75 computer...So....

1- Is it unlikely that a board running a P75 will accept a MMX200 chip?

2- What would be the minimum CPU speed that would be able to get the full usage from 2 voodoo 2 12MB cards running in SLI mode?

3 - If I was to build a Pentium 200MMX system from scratch, what components would you suggest to complete the system using the cards I have. (specific brands recommended as well)

Thanks for any and all help I get. Again I will appologise if I've asked a question that you are all sick of answering but I am getting sick of staring at 20 old games that I can't play!!


Regards
Manno
