P133 just returned first result.

[Orange Peel]

My poor old P133 has only just managed to return its first result after 210 hours and 26 minutes. It generated 1,014 points for the cause.

Unfortunatly it died soon afterwards. I thing the stress was too much. All is not lost as its being upgraded to a P233MMX, so those result times will be cut in half. :rasta:

[Rando]

Congratulations Slayer! if I'm not mistaken you hold the record so far. Murderer:D

[Orange Peel]

They don't call me The Slayer for nothing. :wizard:

[floppybootstomp]

Sorry to take the wind out of your sails Slayer old chap, but my K6-2 300 clocked up 231 hours for 990 points recently. It's only had tiny ones since, like, 10 hours or so :)

Ner ner...:p

[Orange Peel]

Bugger. What more can I say.

You may have beaten me this time Flop's but I get you next time.

I will have to crank out the 486 DX50 I have in the pit of hell (my bedroom)

[ImaginAsian]

LOL I'm gonna own both of you...maybe :joy:

My Celereon is at 189 hours and 86% completion :P

But nice work their compadres...we are almost to the PROMISED LAND :D

It just gave a few strange beeps and switched off. It happened about 5 minutes after it had returned the result.

[Orange Peel]

It was the board, chip and memory. I have been patching it together for months. It will be upgraded soon.

PS. I'm getting a dual P3 1GHz system soon. Watch out guy's. :D

Too bad UD doesn't support Dual-Processing :(

But heck another panty chaser is ALL GOOD :cool:

[miller]

I'll beat both of you guys when/if I get my 15mhz 486 machine up and running...when I get the time ill take another crack at getting this thing to boot. Last time I tried to boot it up it shocked me! :(

Maybe the cpu is in wrong anyone know what direction they are supposed to be pointing and such? Its a DX or SX chip...

[AmStoned]

Ah, shit, you guys are too much. The trend around here seems to be obtaining the slowest and sorriest PC you can find. Screw you guys, I'm gonna find a bunch of cheap ass PCs from my neighborhood garage sales and whoop the hell out your scores.:D Watch me.

[muckshifter]

What a "cracking" idea ... I have a P75 & board with some other old bits ...

New Competition IA
Who can take the longest to return a result on an old system.

Yes, yes I know it sounds counterproductive ... it's for "Fun".

:hat:

[ImaginAsian]

Don't make me rebuild my 486sx-25!! :P

[muckshifter]

... one step ahead of you IA, built it up this afternoon. :D

now if I could just get rid of the BIOS password I may be able to boot to a floppy. :confused:

... and before you say anything the dam thing will start-up WITHOUT the BIOS battery installed and NO error messages. :eek:

Now where is that Vic20?

:hat:

[BART WILLIAMS]

I have a "NORTHGATE" 386 16mhz. That should compete as far as "SLOW" results.

:lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:

Keep us updated on its results Bart!

[floppybootstomp]

If you can top about 280 hours, you'll have the team record. I think that was about the figure IA managed. I clocked up 230 hours on a K6-2 300 recently.

Also, I'd slap at least a passive heat sink on that CPU, otherwise it may meet the same fate as the Slayer's 133 :lol:

[lurch63]

darn you, i gave all of my slow pcs to the salvation army 4 months ago, had an amd 286 12mhz to take you to the mat with , arg, all i got left is a dx4100mhz optiplex, ah, but i still have my 66mhz dx2 chip which i can put in here for reduced performance, and with its 9600baud modem on here you guys are toast, 8meg of ram, oh yeah. lurch goodness i remembered when i practically swooned over the thought of 128MB ram chip, with that you'll never have to buy ram again :) lurch

[DragonAce]

i think my mom still has an old 8086 in their basement somewhere..
i'll see if i can scrape the cat piss off of it and get it going..
hmmmm..can ya run UD from a 5.25?? i don't remember it having a hard drive..:(
but at least it would get me onto the team finally..:joy:

[floppybootstomp]

DA: are you using 720Kb or I.44Mb disks? (j/k) :lol:

[BART WILLIAMS]

If it is an ibm pc it just has 1 or 2 floppy drives. If it is an xt it can have a 10 gig, No, make that a 10 meg. HD.

[DragonAce]

hey guys..
all i think it has is the 720k floppy..
so i think i'm snookered..
no hdd, so no os
ah well, it was a thought..:(

[DragonAce]

hmmmm..actually
if i can get my old SparQ to work with it (have 2, ide and parallel port) it just might work using the parallel drive..
use the floppy to boot w/dos and then install the os UD needs on the spar..then try and get the Spar to be the boot device..
hmmmmmm..maybe it'll work after all..;)

[ImaginAsian]

Damn DA...if you ever get that POS hooked up, you gonna take the record for longest return easily :)
