Hi all, i decided to build a super XT machine, based on one of the best XT pc ever produced ,OLIVETTI M240!
I started from an old basic olivetti m240 machine, at the moment i modified it in this way:
CPU: Nec V30 10 mhz (replace the original Intel 8086 8 mhz)
FLOPPY DRIVE: 2 units, one 1.44 mb 3,5 inches and one 1.2 mb 4,25 inches
HARD DISK: SCSI 8 gbyte
CD-ROM: external box SCSI with PLEXTOR CD-RW 8x
SOUND CARD: Sound Blaster 16
VIDEO CARD: Paradise VGA
MODEM: internal 56k US Robotics
POWER SUPPLY: modified mini atx 450 watt (replace the original AT 200 Watt)
i build also a joystick adapter to use Atari joystick with the analog PC interface, at the moment i'm working to upgrade the video card , do you know wich video card i can use on XT slot (the best one)? I know that ATI Wonder 16 and XL24 are very good and works on it, is it true?
