old hardware, even older OS. but i'm feeling nostalgic, so can the below hardware run a fresh clean install of Win98SE? no idea what programs i'll run other than some old version of office, but i'm mostly asking about the OS, drivers, etc. i WILL install a bunch of offline updates, including the unofficial service pack 3.45 from MajorGeeks.com
Win98SE
Athlon XP 2400+ (single core, Socket A, circa 2002)
ECS L7VMM2 motherboard
2x256M DDR ram
(these three "core" parts already worked fine under WinXP, they're being reclaimed as a "set" for use with Win98SE)
i've got an available AGP slot, so i'll find some old graphics card on eBay for it as well, later on. all going onto a 40G IDE hard drive.
