All,
Forgive my stupidity on this, but just getting started with this..
I want to build a 286 PC for home use (to just do it and also to play older games on and tinker with). Anyway, I was hoping you all could point me in the right direction or give your advice on your own preference for:
Motherboard
Processor (What speed of 286?)
RAM
Controller Card
Sound
I really appreciate the help and if I need to provide ANY other info, please let me know.
If I am missing something obvious, please let me know!
Also, does anyone know if the Aubrey Pilgrim books on 286 / 386 / 486 are any good or worth looking at?
Thanks!
