Hey /g/ wtf is that black shit on the cpu cooler, aka i found

Fuckin hell the cpu fan wont even spin

Does it smell of cigarettes? Possibly a smokers pc.

>>61363589
Its just dust
I have seen much worse
Just clean it all up and get the computer running again unless there is some kind of visible damage

it's nicotine. it's also immediately toxic to humans in that concentration. use protective gear.

>>61363642
>Smokers PC
Might be beyond cleaning if this is the case
I had to scrap a GPU I got from a smoker just because the smell of smoke would not come off, and so when the fans on it spun up it made the entire PC smell like cig smoke
>>61363589
Try LIGHTLY smelling it and see if it smells like cig smoke, if so just fucking wrap it all up in a bag and junk it

>>61363642
this

At minimum wear a cheap home depot industrial mask and nitrile gloves OP.

>>61363589

OP here, it dont smell like smoke, the computer is filled with fucking cat hair and black dust, i cleaned the cooler using a vacume and a brush, the mother board has blown capasitors so il fix that, and id got to say its hard to resist this pc, it got 8gb of ram 700gb hard drive and much more, but its a fucking old crap from the windows vista era. I am going to use its ram on another pc, wich ll be using it as a rust server.

The ram, its probably ddr2

>>61363779
It is DDR2

>tfw that is a better CPU than my current one
Fuck, I need to upgrade

>>61363818
Damn, that would be a good dumpster find fixer upper video

>>61363818
Literally just stick everything in the dish washer and give it a good dry. It should be fine and if not it was free anyway. Its better than putting up with a smokers pc and trying to clean it by hand.

>>61363818
That's actually not too bad, that Phenom is pretty decent, and with 8gb of ram, although it's DDR2, a 750ti or a gt1030 thrown in there would make a great light gamibg machine.

>>61363818
Nice, I found a Dell xps 420 with a q6600 instead of a phenom x4 9750, but with the same gpu and ram of your find. It's a nice Youtube/family computer/old game player sitting in my basement.

>>61363893
I did clean it by hand

>>61363907
I already have a gaming pc with a 980ti so like i said above im a use it as a server or just sell it.

>>61363740
If it doesn't smell like smoke but theres pet stuff in there, its probably just pet dander and stuff like that.
Clean it all under extremely hot tap water and then let it dry for a day or so. Works well on heatsinks since air might not get it all and a wet paper towel will take years.

>>61363924
It'll still smell like soap. You can clean it int he sink with soapy water and a scrub brush too. It'll get rid of smoker's crap, unless youre a nasty dirty fuck yourself and don't care then go right ahead.

Fair warning though, if you use it in a non-smokers house you'll smell that nasty thing when it starts to heat up.

>>61363936
If you drop in windows 7 and leave 4gb of ram you can easily sell the fucker for 200$ to some poor sap on craigslist.

>>61363957
This too. I sold potatoes on craigslist for $150 and they were a decade behind.

>>61364071
Thanks and you got the mother board wrong also when i found it had no psu and side panel

>>61364136
you're welcome. and that's still a good find tho. does it post?

>>61364176
Idk yet. The motherboard has exloaded capasitors wich i need to replace first and then rig it up.

>>61364190
update us with a new thread or something when you get around to doing it. I'm actually skeptical you can get it working by replacing capacitors, tbqh. I feel something like that would be easy to fuck up

>>61364233
It actualy is really easy to fuck up the motherboard if your using a soldering iron, cus on motherboards there are tiny pads and tiny amounts of solder and if you do manage to touch the pad the solder barely melts through, btw i will be using a hot air station to repair this.

>>61364299
well good luck to you lol. are you about to do it right now?

Probably in a 2 hours or sooner cus im still finding a 820uf cap

Actualy i found them so il be starting now

Hp is cancer. No matter it's new or old it's always cancer

>>61364679
Got a cleaner image? If there's some traces leading away from the shot pad, you can scrape the protective layer off them and solder directly to that instead.

IMO though you really should have gotten a replacement board that supports the Phenom. They ain't too expensive on ebay.

>>61364872
There is no trace pad just a pad

>>61365335
Well, a direct replacement board is about $30-ish on ebay if you're willing to go that route.

Im a try powering it on without that capasitor

>mother board has blown capasitors

Forget it. Keep looking in the trash, find another one.

There is another system - out there, somewhere.

I'm not saying it's impossible to fix but when the motherboard has blown caps it's usually time to ditch it. There is a reason that system was in the trash. This doesn't mean you can't use the case and the HDD and perhaps even the RAM and the CPU.

>>61364136
Too bad it didn't have the PSU.

>>61365375
OP is clearly a dumpster diver. Epray is not required, there is a cheaper route and OP knows it.

We believe in you OP.

OP here, and well i fucked up, i did not fix the motherboard but atleast i got a load of good parts, if your interested in me salvaging the case and other stuff, and upgrading my other computer to run a rust server then come join me live stream at twitch /xpiy
