Your old PC fails to work and you finally buy a new one. Should your old PC sit in the corner and be useless? No, you can still use them or the laptop parts of it. This article will tell you how to utilize it and make the most from the old PC.
If you're running a home network and have multiple users--you, your spouse, your kids--reuse as network-attached storage or even as an actual server may be just the ticket for an old system. However, it's not just a matter of plugging an old PC into a network connection and starting it up. Most desktop systems aren't configured to be effective servers or storage systems. For one thing, they probably use too much power. You'll want to set BIOS power management to run cooling fans in quiet mode, if that option exists.
