I Found This PC Dumped on the Side of the Road… It Runs Windows XP Perfectly

Описание: 🖥️ A PC dumped on the side of a farm road… left in the weather… and somehow it still works.

In this video, I rescue an abandoned computer, bring it back to life, and take it one step further by installing Windows XP, tracking down all the drivers, and turning it into a surprisingly capable retro gaming machine.

After setup, I run real benchmarks and then test a lineup of classic PC games in release-date order to see just how far integrated graphics can go on Windows XP.

📊 Benchmarks
🟢 3DMark 2001 SE

🎮 Game Tests (Oldest → Newest)
🟢 Unreal Tournament
🟢 Quake III Arena
🟢 Colin McRae Rally 2.0
🟢 Counter-Strike 1.6
🟢 Need for Speed Underground
🟢 Unreal Tournament 2003
🟢 Need for Speed Underground 2
🟢 Far Cry

Every game runs at acceptable frame rates using integrated graphics, proving that this system makes a fantastic Windows XP retro box — even by today’s standards.
