If anyone has ANY comp that they don't need please give it to me. A comp or innards because I am making a wood computer, and I need some stuff. Basically all I need is a Hard Drive, Disk Drive, and maybe a floppy drive. If you had a sound or video card lying around that would be neet too.
Sorry if I'm asking for much I'm desperate.
If anyone has anything I need just post here or pm me.

P.S. I DO NOT CARE ABOUT ANYTHING EXCEPT THAT THE PART(S) IS WORKING!!!

Thanks, Max.

Please don't flame me I know I'm asking for much but $20 is all I have to spend right now.:(:(:(

wow, you definatly have the bug. go to a local thrift shop and buy a cheap old crappy one for 10 bucks, because shipping would be about the same for all those parts...

Good to see you have been bitten too.

And yes I am trying to adapt this attitude where when I start something I stick with it, so I'm trying not to lose confidence in myself (3 projects at ones, and one of them is a web site). Lol.

I've got some parts you may be interested in. I have a 6 GB IDE Hard Drive (I think it works, I'll test to make sure), a 250 Watt Power supply with a noisy fan, and two floppy disk drives (I'm not sure if they work; I was having trouble with them but I think I had the cable installed backwards.) I also have a CD-RW drive and necessary cables to connect all of these parts to the motherboard. I have a couple of old video cards, but I don't have drivers for them and they really aren't worth much. I installed them under Windows 98 and at least one of them worked with the default drivers. They should give you something to connect a monitor to, but don't try to play any games later than DOOM on either of them. If you're interested in any of this let me know and we can PM to work out the details.
