A CPU ahead of its time: The Pentium Pro
I was on the lookout of Socket 8 and Pentium Pro systems for quite some time. Just a few weeks ago, I finally found a useable VS440FX board and a Pentium Pro 180. A few weeks later, I got two additional boards with 200 MHz models. The board we are looking at today has bent pins on one of the Intel chips, but nothing that can't be fixed! After successfully fixing this board, we are going to install Windows NT 4.0 on a Western Digital Caviar 11000. ▬▬▬▬ Affiliate Links ▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬ Visit my website to find affiliate links to most of the tools and products I use 🔸https://bitsundbolts.com/affiliate/ Thank you for your support! ▬▬▬▬ Support Bits und Bolts ▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬ Patreon: 🔸 / bitsundbolts Bitcoin: bc1q2dvf9flf78lam33qjj9w9xgvfxdgre7g9x3rmw Twitter/X: 🔸 / bitsundbolts Facebook: 🔸 / bitsundbolts Website: 🔸https://bitsundbolts.com/ ▬▬▬▬ Timestamps ▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬ 00:00 Intro 03:18 Motherboard repair 05:50 Assemble VS440FX 06:52 Power up 08:15 The BIOS 09:56 Install Windows NT 4.0
