Keeping old hard drive, fitting new motherboard/CPU?? Possible?
A quickish question for you knowledgable types. I built my present PC but now i'm getting a beep code on start up of 1 long-1short beep then it shuts down. It doesn't even get to the point of firing up the video side of things. Not sure what this means as I can't find that particular code anywhere for my BIOS but 9.C and/or 9.F comes up on the LED display in the case. (Phoenix/Award) Now I have seen an upgrade motherboard/CPU/Graphics card and RAM bundle quite cheap and think i'd like to fit it but can I keep my present Hard Drive as it has all my photos, documents, programs and software on it. What i'd like to do is just fit the new equipment in my present case leaving the Hard Drive in place, but what, if any problems do I need to look out for?
Thanks.
