Compaq Presario 5284 QuickRestore (Windows98FE)

One of the longest and weirdest QuickRestores I have done...
There seems to be an issue with the image where you can no click anything in the start menu or desktop, even in file explorer... Updating internet explorer fixed the issue temporarily, but it came back again after installing USB drive (for mass storage)... Even a clean image restore + update to Windows 98 SE didn't fix it!
I suggest using this if you own a Presario 5200 Series : archive.org/de...
I tested it on this Presario and had 0 problems. The image is identical and works just fine. Password for the PQI image is "ZZZHIND"
Specs :
192MB SDRAMM 166mhz
450MHZ AMD K6
20GB Quantum Bigfoot TS
ATi Rage LT Pro (running on an AGP bus, but no AGP port)

I remember when this PC was advertised in my local newspaper. I was drolling to experience it while keeping the ad.

[@dreamer_prince900]

That was the computer we had in 1999

Great video✌

Superior AGP graphics? I'm in!! Great that you have that restoration disk! It be interesting to see what games run well on that system. 👍

[@tomtom98]

It doesn't live upto the "superior AGP graphics" name XD
I was pretty dissapointed (and that was running at 800x600)

@@tomtom98 Well yeah... we all know Rage wasn't all the rage, but you might be able to run some good stuff using CIF. RetroTechBytes has a nice video showing CIF games, the title is Raging With the Machine: ATI CIF and the Rage Pro Turbo, #GPUJune Part 2!

I remember a daycare I went to after school had this exact compaq machiene I had to use the quick restore while the little kids were napping and then after restoring it i installed the desktop themes with the underwater theme they loved it as far as i can remember

I remember buying that same PC back in 1999. I was suppose to myself a Mac cause back in 1995 I fell in love with the Macintosh Performa 630CD. Years later I ended up buying the presario because I wanted to play multiplayer games like Quake 2, Quake 3 arena because I read some where that you couldn't play multiplayer games in Macs. Oh yeah I just typed this from my iMac. 🙂

Man, you are lucky to have one of these with the door still on the front, those are always missing.

[@koopalibrary]

ahh, the computer I played age of empires 2 and diablo 2 on.

[@marcosguillermomendoza4761]

I remember when I did this restore by first time. I think it was the year 2001. I felt very nervous 😂

[@jacobkleiman7466]
