My grandads being his PC round tomorrow for me to have a go at fixing.
A few weeks ago i 'died' in the middle of him using it, and failed to power up again, he took it to a shop, who confirmed it didnt work, tested all the parts, found them all to be fine, reassmebled it, and i worked, so they gave it back, and charged him about £25 (not too much)
- He got it back, and the Kboard didnt work, so i messed about for abit, and it did it again. and again, you hit the power, nothing shows on the scren, apprently.
- He rang the pc shop again, who said its prolly the mobo, and prolly not with replacing it, get a new pc.
So anyway im going to stick the HDD in one of my machines, and backup his data onto dvd or CD, then have a go at geting it to work.
- I dont know is when you hit the pwr button it just donst power up at all, or weather its just the screen that stays blank.
- Anyway, im guessing it eather mobo or Gcard, so we'll see.
Its a three year old medion, early P4 i think, all he can tell me it is a geforce4.
- But, he doesnt need any more, infact, anything more than a 486 is a bit of a waste!
- And he does is word process, and surf the net at 56k!
