Thanks man! I love to hear this inspired someone to do a similar build! And I used female-to-male breadboard jumper wires to make the connection between the motherboard and the power button.

Hey thanks a ton for responding, I really appreciate it! Sorry to bother again, but I was wondering if you faced any issues regarding air flow/ air pressure? I was also thinking of adding a 120mm fan for intake and a 92 mm fan for exhaust, but since the power supply will act as an exhaust as well, do you think that would offset the pressure at all? Maybe im overthinking it, just not sure whether the 120mm intake would be sufficient enough to keep the pc cool. Thanks for your time again!

@@nicolasarrazola1615 No problem man! And I'm not sure honestly. Personally I put either an 80mm or 92mm exhaust fan in mine, even though the power supply was also working as an exhaust. The temps are all well within operating range with that setup and a single 120mm intake. I know someone makes fans that use 5.25in drive bays as well if you need more intake as well, but I've never personally used them.

Hey man, thanks for responding again, I really appreciate your input! Ended up buying the parts, now I’m just waiting from them to arrive so that I can get my hands dirty with this build.

@@nicolasarrazola1615 No problem bro. I hope I was able to help. Have fun and I hope I get to see your build!

No problem man, and thanks for watching! Let me know if you post something about your Dimension 2400. I'd love to see it.

@@DRush295 Hey man, I dug into the sleeper build. So far so good except one problem; The power button! Did you use some type of adapter to connect to the motherboard? Any help would be greatly appreciated

@@sebastianakins414 I got some basic breadboard jumper cables on Amazon so I could connect the power button to the appropriate pins on the motherboard.

​That should work great. Thanks! Just now seeing your previous conversation with another person in the comments about power buttons. Have a solid set of HW, now I'll be on to the fans/RGB for max Windows XP fps. Just sort of a bunch of parts laying around: i7 2600 32gb DDR3 GTX 1650 4gb DDR6 Corsair 750w 500g SSD Will add USB 3.0 / DVD & Blu-ray -Eventually I might upgrade the mobo/cpu/storage, but for a side project it's good 'nough. Cheers

That would be awesome!

I am trying to install 98se on a Dimension 4600i as I am typing this. The first attempt using a SATA drive did not seem to be able to boot so now I am trying to install it on a IDE drive. It probably still won't work because the files copied to the SATA drive without issues so why would running an OS be a problem.. I think the board is somehow too modern. I have had that with another even more modern Dimension, that it won't run 98se and it crashes at the startup. It will run the 98se setup but it won't run Windows itself. The 4600i, since it has AGP, might have a chance to be compatible with 98se. I will find out soon enough. With an IDE drive the 4600i seems to be compatible with 98se! Good news for me too, since I can't have too many 98se systems. I want to have at least one 98se system working if possible, to use as a digital audio recorder with my old Yamaha DS-XG sound card. The PCI USB is not detected automatically though. See if there are any 98se drivers available for this old thing. You must install Windows 98SE with "SETUP /P I" which will disable ACPI and cause 98SE to use the older 95-style APM (Advanced Power Management) instead. This will let the graphics card function correctly since otherwise it gets a memory conflict.

I'm sorry to hear that bro. Hopefully, another old case comes along that works!

@@DRush295 Actually last night I spent some time cutting out metal and making small adjustments to the case and I think it'll fit now.

Hell yeah man!

That's awesome man! Have fun and I'd love to see it when it's completed. Everything was relatively easy, but the two things I'd say were obstacles were removing the mounting point for the 3.5 inch drive cages inside the case, and putting the motherboard in. For the drive cages, you're going to want to remove them for your graphics card to fit, but you don't have to remove the mounting point if you don't want to. It's best to remove it though if you want to mount a 120mm fan for intake like I did, you may be able to make an 80 or 92mm fan fit without getting specialty tools like a dremel to remove the 3.5 inch cage mount. It was a pain cutting it out using the dremel, granted I also had never used one before. The mount point I'm talking about is a small rectangular metal piece attached to the inside of the case that the drive cages slot into. For putting in the motherboard, I'd say just be careful when mounting it. The first motherboard I got worked fine on first boot, but after taking it out and putting it back in, it didn't boot anymore. Idk if this was just the motherboard failing since it was used, or if I accidentally damaged the back of it against the round integrated stand-offs, or something else. I didn't see any visible damage, either way I got a different board that's identical and it works great. But just to be safe, be careful, the integrated stand offs are wider than normal ones so it's easier to accidentally gouge the board against them. I hope this helps and good luck on your build!

Thanks man! And that's awesome! Post a link to some pics or pcpartpicker when it's complete I'd love to check it out!

Thanks, I'm glad you think so! For the GPU length it's hard to find the exact dimensions on the card I used since it was pulled from an HP pre-built computer, but what I found says 241mm. There was still about 25-50mm of clearance from the front of the case. As for the CPU Cooler, the Thermalright Assassin X120 I used fits, but JUST barely. The height is 148mm according to its Amazon listing. For the motherboard stand-offs, they worked for my microATX motherboard. There were extra stand-offs that didn't get used, but if the mounting points lined up from my microATX board, they should also line up for your mini-ITX board. Good luck my friend and have fun if you decide to build!

I'm glad this video made you feel like you were seeing them live again bro! They definitely slap. 🤘

@@DRush295 tea! Thank you for the vid!

Thank you Juan!

I could but I'd rather it be Windows 10, and just make it look like Windows XP so that way it's more secure. Since Microsoft no longer releases security updates for XP.

No problem! Thanks for watching and leaving a comment.

Thanks Johnathan!

it's called ZMatrix

***** I fixed it, thanks.

RyBegz44 I believe they played Failure and one other of their new songs. They played their older stuff mostly, even Polyamorous. Unfortunately my phone died so I was only able to record 4 full songs.

Thanks Agent for what ya recorded. Yeah I saw them live recently before their new album release and they performed Failure. Was hoping they would incorporate some of their new songs from their new album. I'm seeing them twice within the next two months. Hoping they would get rid of Hopeless and Topless and replace it with Bury Me Alive and Never Again. I know that is very specific lol..

Great songs and I hear ya! Lol

amir sarkhosh i can find that no wear

amir sarkhosh TELL ME PLEASE

I haven't had this background in a long time, but from what I remember it was called ZMatrix and it was free. Hope that helps.

UPDATE: It is ZMatrix, it is free, and it works on any Windows operating system. More info on it can be found in my comment above. Just follow this link: zmatrix.sourceforge.net/

thankyou

I haven't tinkered with this in a long time, so you probably have a great point there roy pinkster! :)

Please give me some more details, I'm a little confused as to where you are having issues.

Dylan Rushton don't bother i figured it out but thanks that you were going to help me :)

Flameingmassicar Dylan No prob lol

Thanks!
