ranges of hardware.

YMMV. I distinctly remember not being able to get audio in some games without a sound blaster sound card. I remember games requiring a 3rds voodoo card to run as well.

Yeah my first PC had a Sound Blaster, but no Voodoo and only 8MB of RAM, 90MHz processor, and around 800ish MB for the HD. I eventually found another 8MB of RAM in my uncle's basement that let me finally play StarCraft (no sound, lowest speed).

Still, had that computer for over a decade. I was always digging around used/clearance bins looking for old games to play.
