Travel straight back to the definitive era of turn-of-the-decade compact desktop computing with an authentic, whisper-quiet micro-battlestation: an original HP Pavilion Slimline SFF Desktop PC running its factory-original Windows 7 Professional installation! Having the original factory operating system installation makes this machine exceptionally desirable for collectors, archivists, and retro enthusiasts: all proprietary Hewlett-Packard chipset drivers, AMD Radeon HD graphics acceleration, Realtek audio codecs, and integrated media card reader interfaces are completely native and fully configured out of the box—with zero missing driver yellow exclamation marks! Finished in HP’s signature high-gloss piano-black front fascia with a brushed silver lower pedestal, vertical optical drive door, and a top power button, this Pavilion Slimline delivers full desktop utility in a compact micro-tower form factor that takes up minimal desk space. Powered by an energy-efficient dual-core AMD E1-2500 APU clocked at 1.40GHz (Kabini 28nm architecture, 1MB L2 cache, integrated Radeon HD Graphics), 4.00 GB of DDR3 RAM (3.43 GB usable after shared video allocation), and an internal 500GB SATA hard drive (465 GB formatted NTFS C: partition with over 452 GB of free space), this slim desktop boots cleanly and swiftly into an authentic installation of Microsoft Windows 7 Professional 64-Bit! For retro PC gamers, vintage hardware collectors, and software archivists, an authentic bare-metal 64-bit Windows 7 machine is an essential bridge for running turn-of-the-millennium through late-2000s and early-2010s PC classics that run into modern OS DRM blocks, scaling glitches, or crash-to-desktop errors on Windows 10/11. Backed by integrated AMD Radeon HD Graphics, it effortlessly glides through era favorites like The Sims 2 & 3, Civilization IV, World of Warcraft, RollerCoaster Tycoon 2, Half-Life 2, Portal, Plants vs. Zombies, Peggle, StarCraft: Brood War, Diablo II: Lord of Destruction, and classic PopCap games. Despite its ultra-compact desk profile, this machine comes fully equipped with expansive connectivity and media support: Integrated vertical-mount DVD±RW tray-loading optical burner drive with dedicated eject button Front convenience console featuring dual USB ports, a 3.5mm headphone jack, and an integrated SD / Multi-Card digital media card reader Dual rear video monitor outputs: Digital DVI for flat panels/HDTVs and 15-Pin Analog VGA (ideal for connecting directly to external CRT gaming monitors or vintage 4:3 LCDs) Rear I/O connectivity: 4 high-speed USB ports, 10/100/1000 Gigabit Ethernet networking, and 3.5mm color-coded analog audio jacks (Mic, Line-Out, Line-In) Low-profile PCIe expansion card bays ready for half-height expansion card upgrades

Condition Notes Functional Condition: 100% bench-tested and fully operational. Boots cleanly and swiftly into its original factory installation of Windows 7 Professional 64-bit with all native HP drivers and display outputs verified. The dual-core AMD E1-2500 APU runs cool and whisper-quiet, memory tests healthy, and the 500GB SATA hard drive reads and writes cleanly with a healthy partition structure. Front and rear USB ports respond promptly, the vertical optical drive ejects smoothly, and both video monitor outputs (VGA and DVI) produce a crisp, rock-solid display signal. Cosmetic Condition: Great vintage condition overall. The glossy piano-black front faceplate, silver pedestal trim, and black steel chassis are structurally solid with no broken doors, missing covers, or cracked plastic. Shows light, normal cosmetic surface marks, faint shelf wear, and minor hairline scuffs on the glossy front panel consistent with careful home use and vintage age. Original embossed HP front emblem, rear part stamping (720789-001), and rear serial barcode label (4CH3470WPC) remain intact and legible. Please review the high-resolution photos for an exact look at physical condition.
