i have an old pc that i no longer use and im wanting to wipe it, rebuild it for my uncle. The pc has loads of my details/porn on it that i need to get rid of. what parts will i need to replace to make it like a new pc. Im assuming hard drive, but will this be sufficient to get rid of all my stuff on there and is it easy enough to do?

you could just wipe the HD and not have to upgrade anything.

The problems with older PC's is that upgrading one thing may well need you to upgrade a few other parts and it soon adds up....new HDs are normally OK though.

cool. I have taken it apart, problem is i dont know how it goes back together Ill look into it, computer is quite old, 3 years or so so maybe it isnt worthwhile. For the price it would cost to make it a good up to date pc, he would probably be better buying one Might just have some fun destroying this one instead.

Does this count if you own multiple PCs? As I have a large e-penis
