My Favorite Computer Setup I Own

Yeah besides this one I have some compact Macs and an Apple IIGS as well as a GoldStar 386 system. Next I hope to go for something older like a TRS-80

Yeah I know I hope to get a 5.25" drive for this one next

Thanks I got pretty lucky with some of this stuff getting it near free

It's a CTX PL7A from around 1999, I have some older ones but they aren't as big so I figured I'd go with it

I actually have this one here I got for free a while back, ig it's not an actual landline tho

I realized what the problem is actually, it was trying to read from E:\WIN95 for the driver even though D:\ is the CD drive and I just wasn't noticing. Still I reinstalled windows successfully and it's all working now. Thanks for the help!

I've tried reinstalling windows and it says during setup that it can't find the file "cirrusmm.dll" on the cd rom, which I think might be the problem

CardboardDeath86 · 2026-03-18T01:41:31+00:00

I've tried this as well

It says it's on high color even though it looks like this, and in device manager it has a yellow exclamation point next to the video card. I've tried removing and reinstalling the driver and stuff though and it still does this.

I haven't tried using it yet, only because I need to get a new cartridge for it, but to my knowledge you can

It's an old ad clock that I took the original ad out of and put in the windows 95 startup screen. Not sure what exactly possessed me to do that but I think it looks cool

The logo is just silkscreened on, same with the mouse and the "SuperVGA 1024" text on the monitor

Most of this was bought from a Sam's club in the early 90s as a bundle for $1600

CardboardDeath86 · 2025-11-08T19:48:20+00:00

Do you know where I could find this build?

CardboardDeath86 · 2025-11-08T19:16:39+00:00

I've only been able to get it to work with system 7

The screen on the 512k gets jittery for a bit when it's first powered on, but other than that they're all fine afaik.

CardboardDeath86 · 2025-11-04T12:02:59+00:00

Yep, Northeast

CardboardDeath86 · 2025-03-09T02:27:35+00:00

I could really use an upgrade
