If you want to take a real coin flip fuck it and/or don't want to take it apart. Take the battery completely out and pour isopropyl alcohol directly on the keyboard. If it's diet coke or coffee that doesn't have sugar you don't have to worry about it getting sticky. The alcohol will evaporate and it may or may not work. All you are out is a bottle of alcohol. To me , 6 year old laptop = date with the sledge hammer.
I am a packrat when it comes to old parts and systems. Someday that 20 year old mobo/CPU/cable might be useful!
Somewhere on this here website (you could use search but ...yeah) I noted that I was such a packrat that I had an elevator controller motherboard that I don't even remember where I got it. But I try once a year to purge shit that's sitting around taking up space. I reformed you can too with some help , and maybe a few beers !
The utility room in my basement has all my house tools and power tools all around it. "Most" of them are in their spot, neatly organized (but Im lazy at times, w/e). But I have a short hall thats only about 5 feet wide with short 1 foot shelves on both sides off on the left as you come into the room. Its got all my old consoles, old games, my old gateway computer, the piece of shit acer my mom bought for me after that, the custom computer I bought after that, then you can tell I started building my own because it just devolves into individual parts that are still in their original boxes. No idea what Im eventually going to do with all this shit. I guess its nostalgia thats making me keep them. But.. all that shit still works if I want to plug it up. No idea why I would need windows 95 etc. But.. Ill figure it out one day. Or my brother's kids will when Im dead and they inherit the house.
I finally got rid of my first "real" computer (a packard hell from 1997) maybe 5 years ago, but I still have my trash 80.
Not a problem. Like I said, I haven't gamed since they introduced kronos to EQ2.
You can rip it from one of the sites** at the version you want. Ive got the same version you do and when I got it for something stupid like 3 bucks, I looked for mods and couldnt find that "I" wanted, that would work. Looked into reverting etc. etc. - but no, just getting the bootleg copy allowed me to go back in time to when the mods were supported.
I fucking guess? lol No idea where I got that response from on your post. Must have typed into the wrong tab but no idea why I would quote you here on this one.
