I have been thinking about building my own PC but don't know where to start, I was wondering if anyone could recommend internet sites or book where I can find a step by step guide and good advise on site where to buy.
Thanks in advance

maybe not the best way but if you gave us a budget price and the requirmeents of the computer then you would have a few people giving suggestions of which components you should be looking at. then do a little research (google is your friend) and you'll be on your way.
books aren't usually a good idea, components date very quickly so you will no doubt be given bad/wrong information.
oh and bear this in mind - if you ever get stuck, don't curse too much. we all have problems, thats wat hexus is for! =D
good luck

what I'm looking for is all the basic i.e. all the minimum component I need and what is compatible with what, I thought that once I can understand that then I'd ask for advice on Hexus forum, I don't want to bore anyone with my lack of knowledge and ask completly stupid/basic question and waste your time. There's got to be some site with good basic advice somewhere ??
HERE! seriously, sure anyone here will try and help solve any questions.
online stores:
www.aria.co.uk
www.overclockers.co.uk
www.over-clock.co.uk
www.komplett.co.uk
www.ebuyer.com (possibly my least favourite site in the world....)
there are plently more, all i can think of at the moment...

you're so kind....
in that case can someone explain to me what 'they' mean by barebone computer ?
barebones is like asus terminator or even the shuttle where case/psu/mobo is all there usually with onboard sound/graphics and you have the choice of cpu/memory/hard drive.
I'll second that about ebuyer - good prices but if owt goes wrong its a nightmare. komplett have always been nice to me but postage is huge. Favourite is dabs and returns policy is very good.
