Hi,
I have around several old PCs some running Windows, one has Windows XP on it and another was setup as a NAS server using FreeNAS (a long time ago), using an old server motherboard. I don't want to throw any of them away and need to work out what I can do with them.
I have several old PC games that at some point I'd like to get out and use and one was setup to extract DV from a camcorder using a Firewire card and I never got around to finishing the task.
Anyway, the best one is on a lovely HTPC case and has a Mini ATX motherboard, specs are as follows:
Motherboard - ASRock FM2A75M-DGS
CPU - AMD A6-5400K
Mem - 8GB Ballistix
Gfx Onboard - Radeon HD Gfx
Gfx PCiE - ASUS GTX 750Ti
OS - Windows 7 Ultimate 64Bit (Non Genuine as I cannot find the original Licence Key)
The question is what can I do with it?
Can I keep it Windows 7 (reasonably safely) and play my old games?
Could I install a different OS such as Linux and still use the existing hardware?
Clearly any PC games wont work without an emulator - any suggestions?
