Open the case. Do some studying and then get back to us.

ok i found out that the computer is an hp pavillion 5030.Pentium 75MHz processor, 8MB RAM and an 850MB hard drive.is there any hope for this computer?
No.
Edit: Hmmm. I wonder if it would work with potato?
Woody maybe...
2nd Edit: Come to think of it, how about being out in the potato field with a woody?
Before you throw it out strip, it down and see how everthing goes together doubt that you could save anthing other than an old net card which is probable ISA . Its a good learning tool tho .
Nice to see you found the specs tho good one .
Save the floppy.
Hey forgot that ! :D Its funny what people put in an old computer too . Found some old 16 , 32 mb video cards that I still got some use out of . Hey I'm Scottish . ;)Quote:

Motherboard
Soundcard
Graphics card
USB card
Dvd rewriter
Hard drive
Power supply
keyboard and mouse
and a fan
Oh yeah, nearly forgot, and a new case to put them all in.:naughty:
That won't work very well without a CPU and some RAM. :PQuote:
