Exploring My Computer Hardware Bin!

[@Tamay.]

I did the same, just with phones. I got a big box, put a tiny hole in it and now i act like its a phone recycling bin but its just a bin where i store my collection in

[@Calajese]

Almost everyone's first computer story always begins with "My parents bought a new computer and left the old one for me"

[@Journetta]

we had 1 family computer, the my sister got her own pc.. and the family computer basically became mine.. (and my mums) but she never rly used it.. Then I got a new computer, And the family computer got removed and my mum got a laptop

[@Overlandpage55-theOG]

my dad had like one of the first transformer books (t100ta) and he gave it to me bcuz the screen broke and he thought it was useless, so i uninstalled the touchscreen driver and it worked fine

[@re57k]

same, except it's still like that for me had to postpone my laptop hunt due to covid, especially because prices starts skyrocketing, so my parents had to use some of my savings to buy even the bare essentials.

[@Alex-se4tk]

not for me (i think)my first pc was like i think a windows 7 pc that i got from my dads job

[@12KTOYOTA]

Mine was when my sister gave me her old laptop when she moved out So, it's close.

[@nipeliite]

The camera in front of the screen approach is definetly homey feeling.

[@art_nich]

I'm still rocking an OptiPlex 990! (I've upgraded it to windows 10) (It used to run Windows 7)

[@gp3328]

Yo my aunt actually still uses one of those dell pcs to browse the interwebs because her laptop is broken and I have not gotten around to fixing it!

[@synthoelectro]

Got lots of old kit in my closet, drawer, etc.

21:17 my hp pavilion 552w has that same icon and I found out it’s use is to power speakers I think

@Jimi Hendricksson hello

[@lbsiuk]

You've got a box of computer parts, I've got about 40 or something netbooks sitting under my bed. If anybody genuinely wants a photo of it then yes, I will send it to you.

[@TonyCR1975]

I want a photo

[@insert_username_here]

I, too, crave some sustenance to fulfill the need of gracing my eyes with a pile of netbooks.

[@SylvesterAshcroft88]

My first laptop, a toshiba satellite that ran windows vista, which i eventually upgraded still works barely, but i mostly use it as a scratch disk as i like to call it, to test hardware etc. and to also archive a lot of old software like adobe cs4 which can't be transferred over, cheers for the video!

[@theglitcher8553]

He will reach 1 million subs at the end of 2021 It took 6 years to reach 5000 subs in 2010 - 2016 It took 5 days to reach 113k from 112k subs in 2020

[@bokexd3173]

i have installed christmas theme on my xp machine :D

[@Reziac]

Well, that's a start :) Probably have 20x that many parts around here, can you say PC Packrat? I really like those mesh baskets in a drawer assembly for sorting parts and tools -- can see at a glance what's there. -- Most interesting is that big heatsink with the separate fin assembly and CPU pad... wish you hadn't whizzed on by that one! would like to know what it's from. We see tiny versions with the same design in laptops, but I've never encountered one that large.

[@saikothesergal]

Hey! I have a KDS Display! Its that same grey color too! It works great, its a VGA only 4;3 display. It has a really weird resolution but when you give it time to warm up (Its CCFL backlit, part of why it looks great) It has great color reproduction! i bought it for 5$ at a goodwill.

[@rbxless]

I don't like 4:3 aspect ratio, it just looks like an old TV y'know? The wider, the more modern it seems.

[@balazsszeles]

3:41 I have a similar Dell (Optilex 270), it was my first (family) computer

[@sonic2000gr]

You're lucky, your parts collection is manageable. Mine, on the other hand, is totally getting most of my storage space here...

[@spritefun9362]

[@TheNews1990]

@MichaelMJD did you think of using a digital video disc laser cleaner for an hour?

[@koztech]

The DVI capture card appears to be a Datapath Vision, though not sure of the model. It does appear to be missing the VGA daughter card that connects to the row of pins at the top of the card, between the DVI connector and the Analog Devices chip. Perhaps this could lead to to the correct model and drivers: www.datapath.co.uk/datapath-current-downloads

[@ZaCaptain1229]

Do you have a piece of software to test if your platter drive is dying?

[@Optiplexations]

If the table is not wood, then whats it made of? Glass or Metal?

[@Arfus_UwU]

3:58 it opens....... UP!? I don’t have one but I’ve seen them in person

[@trafficracer124]

Amazing, i have alot of left over parts aswell but i don't put them in a bin i rather but them on small shelves

[@Georgiaball_Mapping]

Interesting video Michael!

[@jamiec9019]

very good video Michael

[@MichaelMJD]

Thank you!

[@razorsz195]

Perhaps you can make "The Scrap Build" Where you find as many compatible parts in the storage box, group together n find any accessories too and put it into some free or bone cheap old case, you could probably make a PC with that athlon cpu and just need storage, motherboard and case and use some of the GPUs, modem cards etc that you have :p Then perhaps compare performance to the win98/95 build and other computers you have!

[@xnonsuchx]

I keep quite a lot of old parts I'll likely never use again, but any time I look at them and think of getting rid of them, I say to myself, "But what if I need it someday?" ;-)

About the GF2MX, have you tried to use an AGP to PCI adapter?

[@ste666666666]

Some of the things in here, I have buried away lol

[@venerdisoldaccount2110]

I have an idea, what if you tried building a pc with those leftover parts?

[@nezbednik]

loved it

[@DelimiterFrameworks]

I'm so sad, I had an Optiplex, I don't know if that is the exact model but it looked just like that, my Optiplex I had in 2009, at my last use of it, I plugged it up and it turned on by itself then the fan shorted out, smoke started coming out of it, and it would no longer turn on. I was sad because I don't know what happened to it, knowing you have the same computers as me makes me sad. I enjoyed watching your video btw, I subscribed. My only guess was that it was completely clogged with dust, and I'm not a big dust cleaner when it comes to computers.

[@dan3a]

I really need to organize my parts bins, it's a mess

[@wesleytan6842]

Both power supplies are from HP!

[@KomradeMikhail]

Only one bin of parts ???

[@bokexd3173]

try to build a pc out of those parts,motherboard with agp+geforce 2,liteon psu,some ram from the box...etc,i want to say that i think you have enough parts to build another pc,ex. windows 2000 pc

[@imzary]

oo i like it :D

[@CNETech]

Be sure to not let the drives escape

[@GioBarreira]

Maybe you should make a computer out of it?

[@SGTMacBC]

I have a nice big box of phone modems. Whenever I get an old system. That's the first thing I get rid of. I will never miss that sound that a phone modem made.

Hello Michael, how are you?

[@osrr6422]

A data recovery video with old dying and or mostly dead drives? Sure! 21:25 I believe that might have came out of a pentium III era HP desktop.

[@TuNk1977]

Be careful with old PSU's, they can give the wrong voltage and fry your PC. If you don't need negative 5V or 12V. Stick to a modern PSU.

[@dartsummer]

Do a pc build

Hallo

[@Win1037]

Install Windows 95/98 On a newer PC that came with at least windows 8

[@Win1037]

It would be possible to reduce the ram size. If most Windows 8 PCs have 2GB of RAM, then it is most likely in dual channel, which means reducing the ram to 1gb is easy

[@Win1037]

I was able to boot my windows xoxo machine with 1gb of ram And it worked
