First I had to change the case from this:
To this case:
After I took the computer apart, it was time to take a look at the parts. To see how dirty they were, and if I needed to change some of the parts. Well. They looked ok and was in no need of getting cleaned.
Now. What parts did this dx33 machine have? I had the following parts:
- UMC 486 ISA-Only motherboard, with some UMC 15 ns cache chips.
- Intel 80486-dx-33 Processor.
- Socket3 CPU Cooler.
- One stick of 16mb 72pin 60ns Ram.
- Tseng ET-4000ax ISA.
- Winbond ControllerCard ISA.
- MediaVision Jazz16 Sound Card ISA.
- 512mb CF Card and Noname China-Adaptor.
- Sony 3.5 inch 1.44mb Floppy Drive.
- 8xSpeed CD-Rom Drive.
Then came the rebuild. There is not much to say about this, as it was strainght forward for me to do. I have done this over and over, since the mid-90's. It took me some 30 minutes to put this all together, so instead of just rambling away this time, I will flood the rest of this blog post with pictures.
Enjoy.... 😀
(Can anyone spot the odd' joke, that I made with the Case badge?)
