    first computer rebuild

    I'm a complete moron when it coms to IT repair. but after thieves took all my spares I was forced to rebuild my old dell. when it went bonkers the other night. I know what all the parts are so I just kept changing parts till it works again , at least for now, dont know how long it will last. . but Im glad to be back.

    See if you can do a disc that will give you a copy of your operatin system and other important stuff. Once you get that get a back up hard drive ready. You may loose this one to breakdown. Mike.

    i think the forums will teach u to build one in 2 day. most the parts where they go are labeled on the board, bust out that magnifying glass. Hope you didnt breaks all the heat sinks off your boards.
    Born to think, destine to succeed.
