Finally I finished reinstalling a laptop with a Pentium III. Yes, it took me 6 hours and more to finish the installation. Just the Windows XP installation only. I still have to install drivers and other applications. The laptop is a very old Toshiba with model dynabook ss. It still uses an Intel Pentium III 1.2GHz. It is very very slow 🙁
It doesn’t have an internal CD-ROM, so I had to use an external DVD-RW to read the Windows XP installation CD. And it uses a USB connector, and I’m sure it still uses USB 1.1. It took me 2 hours to boot from CD and finish copying data and formatting the hard drive.
Another 4 hours was the installation wizard for Windows XP. And finally it finished after a long wait…
This is just a story to remind me. And of course to share with you.
Feel free to leave any comment below. Thanks.
