You can upgrade the processor in the i-Opener. K6-2 500 would work if I remember correctly. You will need a low profile copper heatsink for a 1U server tray.
Depends on what version of the iOpener. I had one of the first ones and it did not support dual voltage (mmx or later) processors, so I had to mod in a voltage divider to one of the cpu pins to get that to work. Apparently later ones didn’t need that, but had epoxied bios chips and no IDE pins soldered so was annoying to mod in other ways
the poor performance in HL is the CPU. Use any S7 good cpu (k6-II) and you will get far better performance. The cyberblade3d is not a bad card. There were worse cards (sis620) that performed decently in HL
Could you maybe do a follow-up on this machine where you try to run MCL 1.2 (Its a Linux distro for 486 systems intended to make modern day computer related tasks possible) on the machine? Have had amazing results on my 486 with 4 MB of RAM so I would love to see how it runs on one of these.
I'm always down for strange or lesser known Linux Distributions but I could only find some very outdated infos for MCL (mattis-cool-linux?). Do you perhaps have more information for me?

11:00 Cheap Amazon cables are notorious for those kinds of issues. It's often a 50/50 shot whether a cheapo RCA cable actually has the channels on the right colors.
Hey Michael, what are the chances (or interest) in checking out XP Media Center Edition? I realize these machines can be a bit hard to find, but it'd make for an interesting video, don't you think?
Can you upgrade the CPU on these things? I've heard the WinChip is more like a suped up 486, so a Pentium might bring Half-Life up to nearly playable levels.
@@badcatalex that is also a huge upgrade but I (personally) would put actually being able to run some more intensive stuff above a nice screen, it could even be running headless for all I care.
that was gonna be my question as well. would it be possible to throw a better processor in it now that it has active cooling? an lcd upgrade would be awesome as well.
I remember having a laptop with a passive matrix display. I remember thinking it had something to do with how my eyes saw that type of display and not the screen itself. Lol But I used to play Age of Empires a lot which wasn’t too bad!
I forgot how painful playing a FPS game was until recently. I restored an old Toshiba laptop and played Doom. Felt like I was getting a strange version of motion sickness. 😂
@@hitechfl I couldn't imagine! I mostly played RTS and some platforme games when I had one. I did play a few 3D games on it for the short period of time that old thing worked lol
We did quite a bit of work with the IDT WinChips back in the day and found that they ran quite cool for a CPU. So that was good. However, the x86 compatibility was not so good. There were lots of games that wouldn't run correctly. But put them on an AMD K6 or even a Cyrix chip and they ran quite well!
I landed up with the iMod 2 kit and having to buy the fan separate. I think the iMod 3 kit came very late in 2000, well past my iOpener hacking days. Note that I did cut a hole in the metal shielding, because the fan was pretty obstructed and LOUD otherwise. Some sparky rotory tool action and it was fixed. For expansion, I used a USB to Ethernet adapter and a Parallel-To-SCSI cable to add a CD Recorder.
I would love to see a 1990s MIDI recording studio setup, that's what I am currently working on - but it's so fiddly and tough to configure lol 1990's UI and 1990's hardware. I love it though, man it's the most interesting era for oddware and strange and wonderful retro tech.
I imagine you could use the printer port for external CD rom drives. MicroSolutions Backpack drives come to mind for that. ;) USB CD rom enclosures might work if you are willing to sacrifice the USB port to it. Though not sure how well Win98 would support such drives. :P
I swear youre gonna be the next LGR, your production value has really gotten good the past year or two, I love it. Also ken is really cool for sending that kit to you, major respect
wow I wish these kits were a thing back when I still had one of these! Also lol nice Apple-branded IDE drive, turning the i-Opener into the world's jankiest iMac clone 🤣
Daemon tools is a way to play CD games in windows 98 se with no CD drive. You just need to have the disc images either on the local drive or on a network share the windows 98 se can see.
I had considered buying an i Opener back in the day for my sister (disabled), but mentioned it to a friend who had one, and he said something about having to pay long distance charges that almost tripled the subscription fee to use it. So I built her a system using parts I had laying around, and paid her $19/month for dial up service instead. (I lived on my own property roughly 30 miles north of her and Mom's house) As an aside, Heretic is the only game that I've played that honestly made me jump back in my chair the first time I played it.
Michael, as usual, I'm less than one minute into this video and already loving the content. What you've been producing is only top-notch content. Keep up the great work man!
9:25 - The Yamaha OPL3-SAx is the exact same sound card which is in the Toshiba Satellite 225CDS. So you should be able to install the Toshiba Yamaha Station Media Player. It's so much better than Microsofts.
That's a good point! I do kinda wonder what the limitations of that can would be. It almost looks like the fan from an old Pentium 2 PC i used to have back in the day!
I've been wondering about that ever since I've heard about this machine. What core voltages does it support? What FSB speeds? Can you set everything with dip switches/jumpers? How much on board cache does it have? how much RAM does it support and at what speeds? Upgrading to AMD K6-III or K6-III+ would be awesome, but it would require the lower core voltages, setting the multiplier and preferably higher FSB speeds. I could see it has a VIA chipset, but not which one, some supported all these things, some didn't. Still so many questions left. I hope some will be answered some day.
Ooh yes!!! I've been waiting for this video! I remember reading a RUclips comment or website article from someone who used one like that with Windows 98 as a temporary PC to get online with, probably because they couldn't afford something like a used eMachines eTower or Gateway Essential PC and needed something they could use to get online until they could afford a more powerful desktop PC, at least if I recall that comment or article correctly.
I have been loving the videos! I have installed Windows 7 on modern hardware once. im doing it again from no 3.0 drivers to working 3.0 usb drivers. you're inspiring me to get my own latitude laptop!
Lack of any kind of late 90s 3D gaming is probably expected, like on laptops of this era. There was no 3D card, or probably even proper graphics card drivers, and then probably DirectX failures as well. On top of it, it was also simply a slow device even by 1999 standards - so don't expect any kind of this era gaming. Late DOS games though - as you showed - different story, but of course crappy screen wouldn't work for games anyway. I would love to see some period-correct Linux distro as this mod was clearly designed towards it! To have a small hacking machine.
I'm a bit surprised to see that this thing has a Yamaha OPL3-SAx, a sound chip I'm very familiar with. It's an ISA device with a genuine OPL3 synthesizer as you'd expect from Yamaha, and a very compatible Sound Blaster Pro 2.0 implementation, so the DOS audio support on this machine is actually excellent. Shame the display lets it down though.
For applications requiring CD, you could use a software that allows you to mount an ISO or IMG file as a virtual optical drive which works fine in my case for these applications
@@stonedbeaver Yeahhh. I have previously used daemon tools. The UI can be a bit complicated to use at the beginning 😅. I currently use WinCDEmu 4.1 by Sysprogs. However, it's only compatible with XP and newer. Nice to know that Daemon Tools is compatible with Windows 98 SE
I'm curious as to how this thing might have handled a programming workflow. If I'm enough of a computer nerd to buy and install a mod kit for this thing, I'm probably comfortable opening up some sort of IDE and trying to write some code.
nice video michael! i grew up with windows xp but i have used windows 98 when i was a kid from computers i bought at the thrift stores or yard sales when i was a child... that passive matrix display would of driven me nuts back then and now id probobly throw it out the window!
Maybe a game like Age of Empires might run on this. I believe all the version in the Collectors Edition DVD do not require a disc to be run. And I guess card games or mahjongg and games that use a static screen a lot would work great on this. Maybe best of arcade from MS would work. And of course all the Solaeu games.
Perfect example of, "Just because you CAN do something does NOT mean you SHOULD do something." Even at $99, back in the day, this thing was far more trouble than it was worth modifying.
Does Win98 support the USB port? Can I assume there is no serial port on the board? If these are available this would work for programming several generations of Motorola radios. No fancy graphics, just simple read, modify, and program simple programs that only work on 98. Possible to do dual boot to run Win95?
Consider swapping the CPU to anything else will probably get you the biggest performance boost. You just need to research what kind of socket that is. WinChip is probably the "worst" CPU.
Yeah I have mixed luck with these keyboard adaptors before. I got a pair of din5 to ps/2 keyboard on ebay before and they have no idea what they're doing and wired up the din5 completely in reverse and sent -5V into my NOS BenQ keyboard instead of +5V and completely destroyed it! Triple check the wiring before you use them!
Was half-life any better on software mode? i remember d3d being shit on it till way past its life also i rember playing it decently on a 166 p1 with 32mb ram in software mode. EDIT Oh ****** that pos IDT chip, those things are hot garbage.

Also the other dude with the valve in the back of his neck is the representation of “opening your mind”. It’s so funny the open your eyes guy is shown on the i-opener.
Should've tried Microsoft Hover in Shift+f4 mode (undocumented full screen with full quality mode), and Microsoft Hellbender. Latter would've actually showed if this thing is at all capable of dx2 full support in fullscreen (believe it or not it's very weird among graphics cards of the era).
You know, I think I have the perfect item for you to truly enhance the iOpener Windows PC experience. It's a USB 2.0 media bay that has drivers for 9x that uses USB to add an external IDE HDD and external optical drive to a system. it comes with an external power brick and lets you install your own HDD an CD-ROM (I think it also has USB ports and a multi card reader setup as well?). It would be absolutely glorious to see it hooked up to the iOpener as the ultimate dongle XD
