Sonny boy has got a free computer from school for his project work and he wants to install his fav game The Sims on it. Problem is, he has about 8 discs to load in as he has the full set, lol and this takes about 7GB. The computer he has has only got a hard-drive of 4GB and believe it or not it is running on XP PRO on only 56 MB of RAM.Now if i buy a new hard-drive, that means i will have to go and buy XP PRO to load onto it dont it ???orcan i buy an external hard-drive for him to load his game on and play from that.Also how can i tell what memory upgrade i can buy this pc ?andhow do i go about linking 2 pc's up for the internet ?right all i know about this pc is this :Hard-drive Fujitsu MPC3043ATAMD-K6 (TM) 3D PROCESSOR56 MB of RAMXP PROThink that should keep you buisy for now, lol. PS the new pc has not got any software on yet for internet.
