Mine kept resetting, I knew the graphics card was past it, the fan had stopped and despite trying to clean it it wouldn't go, I thought this was the problem, so took it to the guy in Atherstone who's closed shop now and he wanted 30 quid to look at it. I thought well I don't want a health check, I know windows needs reinstalling cos if I use Internet explorer it slows the pc down, so I didn't see the point. I bought a new card from ebay, fitted that with the drivers off the site, all instructions were on line in idiot form so all went well with a bit of help from a guy on accyweb, entwisi, who a pc genius. It still reset so I googled and found it could be the power supply, so took the out of the other pc to test and it fixed it, so off to maplins I went to buy one on offer.
So you can do it, you just need things explining in very basic very exact english.
As for the windows upgrade I'll get a friend to do that.
