This is very similar to the model I have, but mine is white. It was my primary portable "laptop" for years (i blew all my money on a desktop back in the day). My mom gave it to me after she won it at her work. It was towards the end of XP support but still worked okay at the time. I wound up overclocking the Atom which led to some heat issues so i installed a manual fan controller, which didnt help battery life but I always kept the ac adapter with me at all time anyway. I havent fired it up in years, the battery took a shit a long time ago but I still have it. Ive been watching videos like this of firing up their old netbooks and it makes me want to pull it out and see if it still works. Now that XP will literally explode if you try to go on the internet, I might finally follow through on what i wanted to do years ago and install some form of Linux on it.

Hey, nice video. I just got an identical one recently. I re capped mine to try to fix a similar screen issue but no luck. Oddly though if the 1F super capacitor that is used for the CMOS is removed, the screen looks better. Kind of need that cap though! I had a very leaky cap on the daughter board inside it (adjacent to the cpu heat sink). The super cap was also leaking and had corroded the pads. The floppy drive had a leaky cap too. I recommend recapping if you plan to keep it long term (as well as remove the NiCd batteries from the battery holder). Anyways I have a slight request! Mine came without the trackball or the cover that hold the ball in place. Is it possible for you to measure the trackball diameter and maybe provide some of the dimensions for the cover? I plan to 3D print a replacement!

Many of the XP 1700s could run at 2400 MHz with good cooling. Check the numbers on it and look it up. The XP was short for experience and they could keep up with the Intel CPUs at a lower clock speed for a fraction of the cost. I built a lot of them back in the day.

Install windows 7 on it, i did that back in 2009 works great

I have this idea where you can design a daughterboard PCB for a framework motherboard then slap it in any laptop where you designed that daughterboard for. I just don’t have the time 😂

I have one of these too. Acer Aspire One AOA150/ZG5. Mine came with 1Gb ram pre-installed from the factory and 160gb mechanical disk i think it had. Been running Linux on it which works great but.. really can't find any purpose of this netbook who I have been laying on the shelf for like 15 years or something. Since it came out when ever it was

Watching this at the end of 2024 on an M11x R2. Installed Windows 11 24H2 on it a few days ago just to see if it would work. It's surprisingly usable. Nobody would ever mistake it for being fast, but considering the age gap between the hardware and the OS, I'm pleasantly surprised with how well it's running.

I tried to resurrect one today. It was no longer booting to XP. I finally decided to pull the drive out and replace it. I figured put some more RAM while I was at it. But machine is now totally dead. 😢 No post. Even after reverting to the original RAM config. Nothing worse than disassembling a machine completely for it to die like that. Seems that such things happen to old hardware. I am reading the drive I pulled out using a USB to SATA adaptor. At least will get the original owner's data back for them. Which is more important than this old Netbook. I was hoping to expirement with it. RIP little Acer. I wish you didn't make getting hard drive removed so painful. Wish you could have stayed around.

Back when Alienware made real Alienware

This was my first computer. It was very nice. We didn't have internet at home. I used to play games in Windows 7. It was a very good computer. It had 512 MB RAM. When I saw this video, I went back to my childhood.

I see it is a Panasonic but when I searched up Panasonic PC-1403. Nothing came up except for a Sharp 1403.

Not all have the mini pcie slot, i think you have the 701SD model

XP is totally safe if you’re not an idiot.

i loove my older acer laptops. they all run linux now and they are quite adequate even 10 years down the line

acer: THE MOST LIKELY THING THAT THEY WANT TO UPGRADE WILL BE THE PCIE. NOT AT ALL THE RAM! (because they provided a glorious 1gb of RAM. and Biden said that it is plenty)

I was sad when Alienware decided to discontinue the M11x line all those years ago. They sort of have continued it in the X14 as a spiritual successor though it isn't an 11-inch.

I got one of these - it was really amazing when you could find WiFi. Crazy expensive toy I still don’t understand why I bought - it was close to what I dreamed was possible but not made yet; the phones we have today.

This is 💯 what I used to play my master system, NES and SNES on back in the 80's and early 90's

Did you also go into the performance options and change it for performance?

Watching Again! Love me some Commander Keen LOL OIh: On SCORCHED EARTH, if you Set the Violence and various settings to 100%, they Will Swear like QBert

This use universal BIOS right?

How is the speakers are they loud

You should have done 32 ram at least!

Really enjoyed this build. Would like more info on the tablet and definitely would like to see a version 2 that has more modern chips and a more modern redesign of the case.

I used this when I was traveling. Did not have a cell phone too expensive to communicate. Used skype at the airports. Paid for itself many times over. Paid $200 for it.

Nice vid!

Panabrite is contrast and Colorpilot makes the colors more vibrant while also giving a slightly better picture

Apparently Asus made Wii style motion controllers for these things 😂

It's a really nice build and I know I'm late to the party but, I want to express my concern for the choice of power supply, as I saw no one in the comments mention it at all. With Socket A/462, you have to make sure your PSU supports a high load on the 5V rail, because these CPUs draw most of their power through the 5V rail. It's pretty specific to that generation of Athlons since 486/early Pentium era. Most PSUs back in the days could support load of 250-300W (and even more) on the 5V rail, while most newer PSUs usually top at 120-ish watts. Other than that, that's a really neat retro rig 👌 Great video ! :)

I still use mine

that fallout new vegas couldve ran with no problem with a couple of mods

You can still use that antenna. You just need a converter box for it.

Just found the exact same model in my attic. My mom used it to write some documents in windows 3.1

My hinges broke too. I ended up sending it on warranty to Dell to fix and they did a great job repairing. I try to be really careful with the hinges ever since

I heard of Geroge Morrow from an episode of computer chronicles , I had idea he had his own tech company , cool

It's a real shame that design isn't done like this anymore.

Seeing this video really reminds me of my past.. Even though I didn't own the exact same netbook, it's one of my most important memories of my childhood because it's the very first windows gadget I owned, my dad gave it to me xD it's an acer model though, with intel atom and a GMA gpu (forgot the details). I used to play a lot of trial games included in the laptop, like Jewel Quest, and packs of modern (at that time) mini-games by Gamehouse. I also recorded NFSMW 2005 on it, and I still wonder how can I survive the crazy fps drops xD ua-cam.com/video/bToGWxlsP4k/v-deo.html

What game is that on 9:47?

Great video - thanks for that first. Well, today I found one example of these rare beasts in the basement of an old house. Sadly not complete, but with the case and the printer. No original power connector, and no floppy disks... And it smells like what you expect from a not perfekt dry basement... 😢 Lets see. It is way too nice to end in the recycling bin! Greetings from Austria! 🇦🇹

I just fixed one of these that my sis used back in middle school. Its an 07 modle of the aspire one net book. The best thing acer did was take this model, and make it easier to repair. To get to almost everything, besides the ram stick i believe, i just undo a screw and pop the cover off. I have one running a different version of windows that wasnt half as good as the one in the video though. I hated it even as a kid. It was so slow. But its going to get modded and turned into a retro gaming station. Just wanted to give a little update after 2 weeks of using my xp aspireone. It is extremely capable compared to what i remember my windows 7 (starter) aspire one. I have a few games installed, most of which are low strain, but i have managed to make morrowind work and have played it a bit. Its running a solid 40fps on the little guy, with low graphics granted. I'll be adding and using this thing more in the future. Now im on to my windows 7 dumpster fire of a laptop.

What if you put Linux on it? (probably not a good idea because you'd lose the ability to change the lighting.)

Man I wish there was a USB optical version with a scroll wheel. It would be awesome for STO.

Everyone praising this Nokia device... it's choppy.

What's the overclocking utlity you used? I can't find it anywhere for XP...

That exact model is actually my first computer lol

What is the "most-modern" OS this Aspire One can get? I used to have this one way waaay back in 2007 (I think) Im thinking of re-buy it in eBay for the nostalgia... but if the browsing experience is this slow I rather not... that's why I was wondering maybe an Ubuntu distro thta supports more recent browsers... or maybe Win 10 (LOL I don't think so).... ?

Ethernet with a Xircom PE3?! 🙀640K RAM upgrade?! 🙀 Internal modem to use as a terminal communications port?! 🙀 External CF-IDE with something like XT-IDE using the expansion snap on?! 🙀 or using the LPT ZIP 100 Drive as an external storage drive?! 🙀. then having one card or disk with Win 2.11, another with Windows 3.0, and another another with ELKS Linux for 8088?! 🙀 And using modern Linux over Ethernet to do something cool?! (SSH still a work in progress) 🙀 Backlit-LCD upgrade?! 🙀 Anyway there are a lot of cool expansions you can do still, and would love to see how Windows 3.0 works without the 8087, and with this particular monitor… especially with the GUI versions of Word and Works and other productivity programs from that area. Was Visual Basic available for Windows 3.0?

I used to have one with Windows 7 32bit it run like a champ or so I remember

How did you make Motocross Madness run on the screen.When i boot the game it crashes but when i connect it to a external monitor it launches
