Hello guys,
Quick mission for you, my boys PC has started playing up again. I upgraded it with a new board, e6600 CPU, 8800GTX and some cheap PNY memory. Almost bought him a new PC some time ago but decided against it as he will just break it we all jumpin about he does around his bedroom.
Now, the 8800GTX died a while ago so he has made do with the on-board graphics. Now his computer is blue screening pretty much straight away with a 0x000000124 code, which going by google means some hardware is dead or overheating (no over heating, plenty of fans and cool air). Tried a clean re-install OS with no luck.
What 2nd hands part should I look out for on the market what are not too old but still work on this PC. I think the board is a p45? Or something similar. E6600 fits in it and it takes ddr3 memory.
What parts should I look out for around £100 all in: ram, graphics card and CPU and maybe a more modern PSU if we can get one in there.
Thanks
