Emlyn_Dewar · 8 Mar 2006 at 19:36

That seriously is disgusting, I've seen some bad cases of dust but that! :eek:

Did anything still work in the computer?

P_A_N_I_C · 8 Mar 2006 at 19:41

I had a similar embarrasing moment a year ago when upgrading my pc. I've got a coolermaster tornado case with 2x80mm fans on side panel 2x80mm fans on top and 1x80mm front and 1x80mm rear. I opened the case to install a new gfx card and discovered that my existing 4200ti was, well BROWN. However in my defence I would like to say that the pc had only been built 9 months at the time. I've now had to disconnect the 2 top and 2 side fans cos all they do is cake everything in muck after about a month!

LoL thats just hideous!
looks like it just came out of the hoover :eek:

Arrrg · 8 Mar 2006 at 20:54

Looks like its just been dug up. Didn't think FDs were that much of a relic yet :eek:

Jamie1984 · 8 Mar 2006 at 21:21

was half expecting a pic of an fdd covered in pink fur.... but thats equally mingin!

Burbleflop · 8 Mar 2006 at 21:25

That pic reminds me of the first time I went to our office in Madrid (6 or so years ago). They had an old machine running Novell which was used to run an old stock list program.

When I was there I moved this machine from under someones desk it the server room and decided to take the top off the case to see if I could shove any extra RAM in there. The whole of the inside of the case was full of dust, literally full.

I'm amazed the thing didn't overheat as that much dust would have been insulating the CPU and hard discs very well.

Looks like one I once cleaned out in a machine shop, the PC was full of dust and metal filings, how it hadn't shorted out I'll never know. The keyboard was illegible. It was origionaly beige (Nice !), but was now covered in filthy black crud and you could not see most of the letters on it!.

Flubble · 8 Mar 2006 at 21:58

lol, i thought ive seen some bad dust before, but that is crazy... how can anybody let their computer get that bad :confused:

33L · 12 Jan 2007 at 07:22

that wins sorry i would have to slap the persons pc that was if i saw that!

Alf4 · 12 Jan 2007 at 09:02

Very nice. Anything living in there?

Solari · 12 Jan 2007 at 09:42

You tend to get this a lot in carpeted rooms

I need to try and nick some of that fan filter material stuff from somewhere... or alternatively find somewhere that sells it...
