IBM Thinkpad 390 from 1998-2000

This is my IBM Thinkpad 390. It was purchased from computer scrap and rubbish after it has been thrown away in 2000. The computer is in PERFECT shape no repair needed, no cracks/scratches, battery works for up to 4 hours. it just needed a new hd since it was absent. It was a birthday present from my friend he got it from a french dude who owned the companys leftovers.
Specs:
- 64 mb ram
- 40 gb hitachi PATA hdd
- Pentium II (around 200-250 Mhz)
- OS: win 2000 pro
- Sony versa 2,5 mb graphic chip
- PCMCIA/floppy drive/CD drive/ 1xUSB 1.1

How to get wifi?
most of the PCMCIA wifi cards are accepted by windows 98 but its really messy to get the internet working. In win 2000 nearly all of the PCMCIA wifi cards are supported and even the older version USB stick wifi cards will work good. I prefer using an older firefox/opera browser on an old system, that works the fastest and GoogleChrome is unsupported,

How to install windows 2000?It is a pretty difficult to install windows 2000, because the original device didnt support win 2000 or higher. The BIOS update was released in 2000, which enables win 2000 and XP support. To get the bios update and to know how to install it contact me. After that everything will go just how it should!

@godofwar1296 lol this is a pretty awkward question, since its pretty obvious that this machine can not run any games that can be played with xbox controller.(Im a frequent xbox-pc gamer) if must try, google it for the drivers. What I am sure of is that the controller has no drivers for win 2000 or under.

Small screen, nice ports, looks good for an old laptop.
