If you haven’t read it yet, you should read my article about resurrecting my old PC.
Last year my desktop PC was struck by lightening. I tried replacing the power supply, but it did not help. That meant I would have to replace the motherboard and its component (CPU, memory and video cards are all different from those in the fried motherboard). I don’t know if some parts are salvageable, but it does not matter. At this point all I need to re-use are the hard drive, DVD drive and the case.
All the new parts should arrive Friday (tomorrow). I know what I am doing this weekend.
I am not going to tell you here what parts I used. I am saving that for the next part of the article coming out on June 1 and part III which will be out on July 1st. However, I will tell you when it is running and any issues that come up getting it running.
Stay tuned…
