Believe it or not, where I am employed (Cheap Bastards, Inc.) I am
being forced to use a Dell that is seven years old. It's a Pentium II
with 128 Megs of RAM and Win98SE. It should have gone to pasture a
long time ago but my needs have not been that great in the past but
now I am having to use AutoCAD quite a bit and it's running like a
dog. Our IT Dept is really lame and the only way I can get a new
system is if this one dies. Like all my personal Dell's this one just
won't give up it just keeps going and going and going ... So what I
need to know is what can I do to make it appear to be a dead system ?
Move some jumpers around on the motherboard ? Any ideas ? Thanks!
