So I have spent the last day and a half rebuilding PC’s for my father.
I guess our house is unique in that it actually had eight seperate PC’s and a laptop!!
The majority of which were obselete or had disks that had stopped booting. By the end of the process from four machines and eight HD’s we had three PC’s running; Linux, Win98 & WinXP. The Linux machine being one of the oldest seemed to be the most stable and fastest performer!
