So let’s dive into the G6-233M with its Pentium II MMX 233MHz and see what else is inside, what’s broken or missing, and what needs repair and cleaning and such. ● LGR links: ● Here’s the video from Billy where he got the system: ● Background music is from Epidemic Sound: 00:00 Gateway 2000 G6-233 02:52 Pricing and specs 04:55 Ports and I/O 05:48 Inside the case 08:33 Power on test 10:37 Slot 1 Pentium II 12:35 Drive testing 15:46 CD-ROM replacement, cleaning 17:01 Installing Windows 95 18:33 Sound card woes 21:13 Starting over... 23:05 Double dead opticals 24:31 POD by Ubisoft 26:17 Command & Conquer Red Alert 28:05 Need For Speed 4 fail 29:44 Half-Life in OpenGL 31:38 DX8 Direct3D tests 32:08 Quake 32:55 SimCity 3000 35:06 Need For Speed High Stakes 36:39 PC speaker in Crystal Caves 37:07 AdLib emulation in Commander Keen 37:45 General MIDI in Duke 3D 39:25 Distracted by Hover! 39:58 Cleaning the computer 41:55 Reassembling, final thoughts #LGR #retro #computer #laptop #touchscreen #lgr #computer #retro #restoration #gaming
