Title: I pulled a computer out of the trash.....
Post by: trooper is j on February 02, 2009, 10:59:04 PM

I pulled a computer tower out of the dumpster at work about the middle of last week.  Today I finally got around to looking at it,  It had a pentium 3 in it.  Well I dissasmbled it, kept the drives, modified the mobo tray to hold a micro atx mobo.  Put a 500w PSU in, 25gig HDD (for the time being), 1 dvd burner, 1 dvd drive, 1 gig of ram, a celeron that I happened to have lying around.  I also put a new graphics card in it (sorry I dont remember what model right off the top).  Anyhow, in the next couple days or so I plan on Putting a copy of xp pro on it.   Then maybe upgrade the ram and cpu.  I also found a working dvd player  ;D
