I get your poinr,but ny dell i5 4570 works fine with usb.and it has xp.All this is not a good oman for me putting ME on there let alone 98se.Plus the fact if iwas to put 98se on there ,i will have to downgrade on the Ram as i have 2gb in there.I have seen there is hack tthat can be done to Have up to 4gb on there.

Where do i get that old stuff?Even if i did they would cost an arm and leg.We have a mafket where i live where they sell all kinds of stuff you never know what you will find there.I saw a an old Apple PC they call them cheese graters i checked it out and decided against it i was hoping it I was hoping it was a Mac Pro.Why i menrion all this is they might have some PS2,s there.

Hard to say, depends on luck, I guess.

Isn't rally driving a mandatory part of childhood in Finland?

Not practically, don't get it as personal

Oh hell yeah it is! Tho I was 18 already but anyway, the car was NOT a smokeless one as I had always a cigarette hanging from my lip

 

[Greenslade]

How many of you use PS2 Mouse and Keyboard with your Retro gear?And does anyone use the USB to PS2 Adapter?If so do they work with no problems?
I have looked on eBay for PS2 Mouse s very few in there ,and the ones i see would be around about the £10 mark with shipping.As opposed to £2 for an adapter.

They're not angry at you, just the situation you're in. They're angry for you, not at you.

I get you poinr, thanks for explaining that. As regards to all that ,the seller of that PC seems a decent guy,shame the the PC did not work.

I hope it's just your camera, because it looks really warped.
