I'm guessing this computer is about 8 years old but that's a wild guess.
I had to update the video card to a Radeon ATI x1050. It HAD nvidia2 when it was built to give you an idea of how ancient it is. It has problems with a few of the newer games but it's definately good for Blockland. The CD drive broke about a year ago and a lose piece was causing a loud groaning noise. I replaced the 20 dollar CD drive and saved $50 dollars by diagnosing the computer myself.
My other computers are 6 and 4 years old. The 6 year old computers 2 hard drives both burned out at about the same time (crying shame). Good thing i backed up all the documents because that is the computer we use to print everything.
The four year old computer was having some power problems and would shut down whenever i was playing games that used advanced 3D graphics. I would have to unplug it from the power supply and plug it back in to turn on the computer again. I ended up taking it to a shop to see what was wrong with it. They in turn told me, "Nothing is wrong with it," and gave it back, having me cough up 50 bucks for running a stupid program that did nothing. A month later i decided to clean the PC really well. I ended up finding where all the dust had built up. I cleaned it out, and now the computer runs fine. Great. 50 bucks down the drain for something i could have done myself.
Sorry for such a long post, but its 1 in the morning and i'm bored, bored, bored.
