Demontage

Inleiding

Sony Desktop Computer-

The Proprietary Force that is my Pentium 4 PC.

At the time it was released it was a very half decent computer. Sony Deemed this model a Digital Studio because of all its Audio and Video inputs and outputs. It has Video inputs on the front panel and optical audio and DVI Video outs on the rear. There is also a Mpeg Decoder/Encoder board for use with recording television via Cable Conection and an infrared remote to control certain programs with (Giga Pocket). I have Upgraded a few things including adding another Hard Drive and maxxed the Memory to a stunning 1.5gb.

If you use this information to upgrade this PC, take in mind that it may be easier to skip some steps say if your going to install new memory or another hard drive as I've done.

So here it is, The Systematic Disassembly

To Really be Blown Away By the Magic - Watch in Slideshow,

    • And remove the Last PCI Card by unscrewing the single Screw. This card is a PCI -Serial Port adapter.

    • A look at the Processor topside and underside.

    • This Particualr Intel Chip is a 2.53GHZ Pentium 4
