These are parts I need for a spare computer I have. Anything in parentheses is compatibility info. the motherboard manual provides. I by no means need anything top of the line, just decent inexpensive working pieces. I'll take free pc stuff too hehe. Please private message me any offers:

1.) Optical drive. I wouldn't mind a DVD-ROM and/or a burning drive but just a plain old CD-ROM is needed (UDMA 33/ATA 66/ATA 100).

2.) RAM. I only have two memory slots. I require at least 256MB total and at greatest 1.0GB. I suppose I'm looking for 512MB particularly (PC-100/133, 3.3V, 168 DIMM).

3.) CPU. Right now I've got an AMD K7 Duron, 750 MHz, L1: 64KB L2: 64KB. I'm looking for about a 1.0GHz cpu or better (AMD Athlon or Duron, 600MHz ~ 1GHz and above).

4.) I need a heatsink or fan or both; not sure what is required. I need a cooling solution for my Intel DX4 100Mhz cpu in my old 486. This is what it looks like:

Again private message me any offers. Please do not post them here.

I'm got a dual socket 370 MSI motherboard with 2 p3 1.0ghz cpus and fan/heatsinks and with 768MB PC133 ECC SDRAM...can't seem to ever finish building this thing.

Okay, I'm still short some parts:

1.) DIN 5pin(male)/6pin(female) adapter. Basically let's you use PS/2 keyboards on old AT computers. Alternatively, an AT (5pin) keyboard.
2.) 3.5" floppy disk drive in good working order. Nothing special, just need a reliable FDD.

If you've got any of these parts I would like to buy them soon, today if possible.

I might have a few of those keyboard adaptors at home. Make me an offer.

If it's just a regular old adapter, $2.00 + shipping.

I've got an old programmable AT keyboard. Has programmable macro functions (press a key combo and have it input a custom string of keypresses), and you can reprogram practically the whole keyboard. Say for instance, you wanted to switch to DVORAK from QWERTY layout for some reason... you can reprogram it and switch the keys around if you wanted. If you're interested at all I'll have to see if I can locate the old manual to go with it.
