        Maybe you're right.  Maybe I'm being too lazy and it's about
        time I learned that sort of thing anyway.

        

        If it's still up for grabs, I'll give it awhirl.

          Research it. Haynes, the people who do manuals for cars
            and bikes, also do a manual for computers. Buy a copy of it
            and learn :-)

                Thanks, but my skill with hardware is limited to fitting
                an IDE drive (I still haven't got both my 500GB SATA
                drives to be recognised by my computer) and RAM.

                

                I wouldn't know what to do with a motherboard.

                

                Cheers
