The Wyse XE, Netier 2000XL and the winterm have PCI slots and can accept a faster PCI GPU, like a 3dfx Voodoo or a Geforce 4MX. The truly DOS compatible, Win98 kosher stuff is limited to:Ī) stuff made around 2002/2003 (something like either a Via C3 with a VIA southbridge (VT82C686B/VT8231) that has embedded Soundblaster support as an accidental holdover feature (Wyse WT9450XE), or with an AMD K6 embedded CPU that has the aforementioned VIA southbridge (Netier 1000 or 2000XL) or a SiS with an ESS Solo-1 that has DOS support (Wyse J+ winterm). Most thin clients available in the secondary market today are made around the time XP embedded went mainstream, and the ones with decent enough 3D support (like the NVidia MCP79 Ion chipset for the Atoms) are meant for XPe or W7 enterprise. You are looking for something that doesn’t exist - the whole point of a thin client is to act as a cheap-n-cheery alternative to big desktop PCs (their main computing and rendering is supposed to be off a blade server anyways), and it’s very unlikely for a vintage thin client to show up with a strong GPU that has Win98 support. But i don't have the appropriate riser and case extension. One other option would be a PCI-graphic card in one of those i have, like in the T5710 or T5720.

Should be around 1 Ghz CPU power and 16 or 32MB dedicate graphics card. And i have a NeoWare Capio which is great for native DOS. This one would be great if there where X1250 and chipset drivers for Win98 HP T5730 1Ghz AMD Sempron 2100+ and AMD Radeon X1250 This one is great for Windows 98, found all drivers, but to slow for later games.įast enough for windows 98 but SIS graphic card sux HP T5710 800 Mhz Transmeta Crusoe equals Pentium II-400/450 Mhz and Radeon 7000m But what is a good an fast thin client to keep an eye out for? Nowadays you can install MacOS 9 on a MacMini G4 - Great. I have always keep an eye on power consumption and desktop space.
