I had an old compaq lying around (about 1-2Ghz, 256mb ram, 40GB hard drive) so I decided to take it apart and use the HD.
but I have a few questions: 1: can I use teh 32Mx6SDRAM its made by infineon and the model # is HYS64V32300GU-7.5-C2 ? I have two computers -- one already has a gig (I dont think I can use less than a one GB ram chip) on an emachines T6536, the other is an OLD HP pavilion with 64MB of ram in total (thats the one I'd like to use it on). might the compaq chip still work with it, or is it a nonstandard part? 2: I have retrieved the 40GB Seagate HDD it is Model ST340810A. Is there anyway I can add this as an extra HD to my Emachines t6536 -- I really want to install slackware on this HD as a secondary OS. If so, then how would I install it? Im not switching it out with my current HD, I want it as a secondary. Would I need to increase voltage from my Power Supply? a link to a tutorial for this would be great. If not possible, I'll temporarily swap it with my current HD and format to use with my modded XBOX. also, is there any use to the old motherboard/250 watt power supply I have in my basement now? should I save them? They can't be worth too much. and if I cant use the ram in either PC, is there any other use for it? thanks in advance edit: I already installed the SeaGate HDD successfully on my own.
