I wish I could help, but you are denied. At this point a
poster is a better option than upgrading ancient gear.
To upgrade it, more info about it might help, including what
memory it had, what (sockets?), etc, etc. If you don't have
the spare sips, it is hardly worth tracking down and buying
them today. If you have the spare sips, you might as well
plug them in and see if they are detected.
If you mention the specific make and model of the hardware,
it might help someone help you... but it's not so likey 10
years + after the hardware became obsolete.
If it is only for historic reasons, methink it is historic
enough in it's original configuration. Maybe even better
like that. |
