Hardware configuration

Setting up this old PC is nothing special.
I used th99 archive to get spec for motherboard. But there are some differences as some markings and jumper locations are in different places.

I clocked CPU to 120MHz. It has 8KB of L1 cache.
Replaced L2 cache chips with UM61256AK-15. There are four 32K x 8 + one 32K x 8 as TAG. Total 128KB of L2 cache. Maximum can be 1MB, but i don't have chips. BIOS setting is WB.

First HDD all ready had Windows 95 code name Chicago installed. It is first version 4.00.950. See wikipedia.

I added second HDD from my collection FUJITSU MPB3032ATU.

Video card is PCI S3 Trio32/64 86C732 with 1MB of RAM.
Also PCI sound card Creative 5880. Not tested currently.
Motherboard has on free slot, witch can be filled with PCI USB board i have (VT6212L).
