My parents computer

This is my parents computer, they've had it since 2000, with some various upgrades, once every few weeks they need me to come by and repair it or reinstall Windows.. It's such a piece of trash that it won't even let me install Linux on it, it halts at the beginning of the installation screen. If they had the money (and weren't a farming family) they would plan on trashing that piece of junk for something newer.

 

I believe the specifications of the computer are:

17" CRT Panasonic screen

1.8Ghz Athlon XP processor

256mb ram

60GB HD

DVD burner and DVD rom drive (that doesn't work, I'm trying to get it to open now to get out my sister's Sims game)

A busted Microsoft Optical mouse that has loose wires so it disconnects every so often, and the right button doesn't work.

A Microsoft keyboard (all the keys in the number pad don't work)

 

Actually before the upgrades, and with Windows 98.. it was more stable than now! wow lol
