Filmed 9/19/2019 - Original Windows XP Home edition Installation on a Toshiba Satellite A35-S159

Description

I bought a $20 Toshiba Satellite A35-S159 at shopgoodwill.com with a 60gb Hitachi Travelstar hard drive, 990mb of SDRAM and a 2.30ghz Pentium 4.

It was supposed to only come with 512mb of ram, but there was two of them, 990 total because of the GPU. The Pentium 4 sticker was removed and the Windows key is the Windows 95/98 style instead of XP which might be a factory mistake, every other one has a different logo.

This laptop had Windows XP Home edition original Toshiba OEM that might of been installed on 8/11/2003! It was owned by Jim and Pat Wood out of Missouri and Jim had a lot of documents and the two had 7000+ photos, i kept some. They had a lot of programs for a Tomtom gps, Sony cameras, bother and Epson printers, and had a lot of spreadsheets and stuff, Avast 2014, realplayer and more. I tuned it up a bit but it was still to slow so i formatted the drive and installed XP Pro.

The hard drive and the laptop have been destroyed. The hard drive quit working actually.
