Hey LGR, I am sorry if this sounds cheesy or cringy, but I am around your age and grew up with the same technology and games as you. I had to leave behind the country where I grew up, leaving behind my friends whom I shared wonderful memories with playing the games you review (Dune, Ages of Empire, NFS...etc). Listening to your stories about your childhood, how some of these games helped you through some difficult times makes me feel like you were one of those friends I left behind and terribly miss every day. I empathize the loss of your sister, I lost my dad suddenly who put me on the path of PCs in the early 90s and also played a lot of games back then (NFL95, Sam and Max) and these games help me get through stuff as well. Your videos kind of helps me fill that hole and I thank you for that. I feel like you're a friend I always wanted to have. So...thank you!

the CD is likely doing that because the computer it was copied from didn’t “finalize” the disk. it should work on playback only devices like a cd player boombox, car, etc. this has happened to me before with small indie band cds they’ve sold. idk how to get around it but that’s probably what jt is!

@@ballyastrocade5672 When disc drives started to be phased out, I swore I'd always have an optical drive, because they are just too handy, especially because I was starting to play some of the older games in my collection. And I also liked to play my old CD music. But finally, in 2023, I bought my current PC, which has no optical drive. So I bought an external USB DVD burner/drive. It's now been over a year, and I still haven't hooked up that drive. In other words, I finally became part of the problem of trusting everything to the internet. GOG exists, so I had no need for the CD/DVD drive. And there's plenty of places to listen to my favorite music online, and I've always had great speakers plugged in to my PC. And when I can't find a favorite CD online (which does happen), I fire up my old living room stereo system, which sounds better anyway.

0:15 that's a lot of bog roll. Someone sure won't go short in the near future 😂

This and the thrifting are my absolute favs.

I didn't know MO discs were a real thing, I only ever saw them in resident evil games.

I love these videos. Find them relaxing and fascinating at the same time. Looking forward to the next one in 6 to 9 months. :)

Some of these items bring back memories from my youth. I remember the ATI graphics card, pretty sure we owned one of a similar model and used the TV tuner a little as well. Fun times.

27:11 One word of warning with the ATi Radeon should you get round to reviewing it. Make sure that you have an audio connection from the card to your sound card before you record using its capture device. My friend's PC came with a newer version of the All In Wonder Radeon 9200 card where the OEM forgot to supply all the correct breakout cables so when he recorded analogue TV using the built in tuner, it saved it without the audio. One workaround we employed was to use one of those internal Analogue CD Audio cables with a white connector and plug it into a spare Line-in Header on the motherboard's audio (which it thankfully had). That header at the top left may be used for that but it could also be additionaal headers for another A/V input like Hauppage WinTV cards used to have in Media Center PCs back in the day. That being said, I caught a glimpse of a 3.5mm cable off an S-Video like cable/dongle thing which I am guessing could be the all important cable.

@28:10 - I have a NIB All-In-Wonder remote and dongle if you would like that to compliment this card.

Been saving this video in my "watch later" until I could enjoy it uninterrupted with my coffee on a Saturday morning.

Clint's descent into madness has been well documented in this video. I'm ashamed to say it was so incredibly amasuing to watch this descent. For what it's worth, my family still has their HP PSC 750 running to this day. I just found new ink for it recently too.
