Windows 10 loads in a couple seconds when you have a NVME drive so that's not an issue with anything remotely modern.
lol that is fair.I thought this was a pII pIII discussion. Lets keep that modern garbage off this forum.
Although for the record you can in fact have an NVMe drive on a PII:I thought this was a pII pIII discussion. Lets keep that modern garbage off this forum.

There are probably children running P4s to stay warm in the winter! Banning P4s MURDERS CHILDREN!Speaking of Pentiums... I think some folks are being too harsh on the P4. Ordinary space heaters can be very expensive and don't even come with a complementary BSoD

kids? have you spent time with kids today? no harm there..There are probably children running P4s to stay warm in the winter! Banning P4s MURDERS CHILDREN!
Ok I'll stop being melodramatic.

I call it Windows Entropy (tm). Every version of Windows I can remember started out working reasonably well performance-wise, then turns to crap over time.Weird how that works, huh? They haven't added any significant new features to windows 10 since release, but somehow its gotten bigger and slower with each passing year.
We used to call that Winrot. In the '98 era no matter what you did, your install would just get slower and buggier as time passed until you just had to wipe the drive and start over. This is what spurned the common(at least in my circles?) practice of a separate drive just for your OS.I call it Windows Entropy (tm).

Did you use the machine much? My win98 systems don't get turned on so often. I have one with a probably 15 year old install at this point. But in that time its only been turned on once or twice a year.Had to do that last week on my ThinkPad 385XD. Probably did that install not even more than a year ago and yet had slowed to a crawl. I probably could have fixed the issues but it was just easier to start fresh...
