This IBM Aptiva 2137-E14 was saved from an e-waste fate recently and sent to me in unknown condition with unknown parts inside. So let's open it up, look inside, power it on, and try out some software! Windows 98 and MS-DOS goodies await. Oh and it looks like the weird graphical glitches in certain DOS games is due to VESA weirdness being weird. Here's a fix! http://www.bttr-software.de/products/fix8x14/
