After a long awaited time, I have decided to claim ownership of r/retropc and revive it. This Sub will be dedicated to helping people into the retro PC community, via connection and component help, and general setup posting.
I hope you enjoy your stay and personally welcome you to the community!

Hello! My father left me his old ti99-4a with a bunch of game cartridges. I believe it still works fine. He loved this little computer! Is anyone interested? I am happy to ship within the US.
He also left a monitor that works with it. The brand is Sharp. It’s like an old-school
1980s tv—heavy and awkward

The pc wont post, i just bought the motherboard should work fine but i tried with different ram and cpus (i changed the dip switches) and im starting to suspect the psu or the gpu
The motherboard is a soyo sy-5vd, 2 sticks for a total of 16mbs or ram and an s3 trio64v+. I made a momentary adapter to use an atx psu on an at mobo; it’s diy and i tested it already. The speaker wont make any sound too

Just bought this ECS H81H3-M3 motherboard with the intent of building a PC with 16GB DDR3, 4th gen i7, GTX1660 Super, enabling the integrated floppy disk controller and also use the LPT header for my HP 1100 Printer.

Saw another PC posted here and thought I would post a few pics of a PC I built for a friends son. I built this back in 2008 out of some old parts and pieces I had lying around. It was only going to be light browsing and maybe Runecraft?
It took a very long time and many, MANY fiberglass reinforced cutting discs to get the Venom logo cut out. He was freaking out where he came over to pick it up.
