Description: Welcome to Another Premium Vintage PC Auction from The Old PC Shop! It is rare to find an IBM tower in as good as condition as this one which has been reconditioned and configured for retro DOS and Windows 95 gaming! Some standout features include an AMD time-period appropriate CPU, a huge amount of RAM, a clean install of Windows 95 on a new, fast 8GB CF hard drive, and I configured my exclusive PIF files on the desktop which reboot the PC into Real Mode DOS - One boot has 622K of XMS support for your memory hungry DOS games, while the second has 622K XMS as well as 32MB of EMS support for those games and legacy applications which require it. Real Mode DOS gaming support tested with several Sierra DOS games, and they ran great! Copies of all software and drivers used in the PC's configuration are included. A new CMOS battery was installed. A new Windows 95 mouse pad is included as is a new PS/2 mouse, a used PS/2 keyboard, and a power cord. The case is in very good shape - See the pictures. Buyer will need to supply a monitor and speakers. If you need accelerated shipping options, please contact me prior to purchasing so I can add them to the auction. We cannot ship using buyer's shipping accounts. I'm always happy to answer questions via the Contact button. This is a vintage PC - Configuration and troubleshooting skill by the buyer are assumed.

International shipping is via eBay's Global Shipping Program - I have nothing to do with those costs or terms of service. I do not typically accept returns as this is a vintage PC.
