Final tally:

Windows 98: Disc had disc rot, unable to install Windows.
Windows XP: Computer would reboot itself trying to get into the installer.
Knoppix: Runs, needs downloadable firmware to run Wi-Fi.
Gparted Live CD: Runs, needs downloadable firmware to run Wi-Fi.
Arch Linux: Runs, needs downloadable firmware to run Wi-Fi.
Ubuntu: kernel panic on boot.
Hackintosh OSX: kernel panic on boot.

I finally decided to give it up. I took everything salvageable from the PC then proceeded to trash it Hulk Smash style.

I highly recommend that to problematic, obsolete, and frustrating hardware. You still haven't fixed the problem. But you no longer HAVE the problem. And you feel better to boot.
