Ok, I am really not that experienced with computers but I will give it a go..all I know is how to fit a graphics card :)

Cheers


Now is the perfect time to start learning.. pull it apart, learn what goes where, what it is and what it does. Practical experience is the best way to learn.. and if you mess up, no worries, you were going to bin it anyway!

We're all here to help, I've learnt a lot from this forum... when I joined SimV I knew NOTHING about computers, current members like congo, NickN and a few others, along with old members such as the_autopilot taught me enough to get the bug... now I'm able to build PCs from scratch. OK so I did a lot of reading and researching, but thanks to this place I got interested.

You could do a lot worse than having a look through the archives of this forum, some of the advice here is invaluable.

And don't be afraid to ask!

Ok, thanks :) .. Do you think though it may be a good idea to get a new motherboard ;D

Thanks, :)
