Just a little computer help please....
So i have a bunch of old computer crap in my garage and want to get the usable parts and make one that runs good enough to just fill with hard drives and us for music and basic shit. I have Gateway Pentium 3 that is complete, another tower in there that is an amd athlon 1800 which has most of the shit, but is missing the video card i believe. The other thing i have is some old roommates computer. it has pretty much everything in it, Asus mother board, haven't looked at which processor and what all is in it.
what i want to know is if i take pics of some of the stuff and figure out what it is, can someone give me some pointers as to whats compatible with what? I can figure out the obvious stuff like how to put it together, but i don't know about campatibility and also what to do once it is running, like do i actually have to install the video cards and that stuff?
Gonna go start getting it out to take some pics
