The_Knight Report post Posted August 31, 2006 I have difference hardware and componets from mant of my old computers (Most dated 95'-98) plus one new working Xbox (Orig vers) which Includes a 100GB harddrive. I have a shell of an old computer 3 different HD's (a 5Gig 3Gig and 100Gig) 2 different DVD drives (Samsung, and Toshiba I think) 1 CD drive (Standard samsung) Would I be able to recreate a computer using my Xbox and my other parts of 3 other computers to make a semi usable computer? (With windows XP? current is Windows 95) I have the XP installation disk. I dont know what other crap I have with the computers. I think the best ram I have is 32mb. (Which would be easy to upgrade) and a Pentium 1 prosseser (Sux) How you I go piecing together all of the best parts into one computer? I know it probably wont work, but I want to try anyways ,Knight I dont know really what my point was for posting but I guess you could maybe figure it out Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The_Knight Report post Posted September 3, 2006 Actually its strange, That night we had a family friend over and she said she had a broken cpu in her trunk, and said she would give it to me (She said it was broken). I took it apart to see what it specs were, and not bad it had pentium 3 prosseser, New 80 GB HD and 64MB ram. I put it all back together and powered it on, I havent had a problem with it, Ive been using it all week. I love the Windows XP Professional it came with... It was just what im looking for... Im trashing the old computers. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Gohan Report post Posted September 9, 2006 silly question scarr, it says 'steve irwin' as 2 seperate words, a username can't be in 2 seperate words, so my guess is he put in his filter: the_knight = steve irwin and then he kept suiciding t'ill he ended up with this.
