**Hello all
As mrs Mongrel and I are expecting, tragically I must say goodbye to my trusty desktop computer, Rubbish, to make way for a cot and all associated paraphenalia.

I was going to sell this, but have totally fucked up doing a clean reinstall of Windows (Was trying to get Windows XP Ultimate Edition on there but for some reason it's not playing ball and I can't be arsed to fix the problem - hence freecyclage. Wanted to offer it on the forum before putting it on Freecycle.

It's dirty, there is a printer cartridge box holding up a fan to the graphics card, and it's rather loud. But it's free!

It's a fairly decent desktop actually - graphics card isn't too shoddy. Would play Civilisation IV quite happily, but obviously is not going to run Crysis Warhead on high detail.

If you really do want to get rid of and would like it to go to a good home, there is always this if no-one wants it...

It's where I'm sending my old computer as it's too old to be wanted by anyone.

Formatting Help

Don't worry about formatting, just type in the text and we'll take care of making sense of it. We will auto-convert links, and if you put asterisks around words we will make them bold.

Tips:

Create headers by underlining text with ==== or ----

To *italicise* text put one asterisk each side of the word

To **bold** text put two asterisks each side of the word

Embed images by entering:
![](https://www.google.co.uk/images/srpr/logo4w.png)
That's the hard one: exclamation, square brackets and then the URL to the image in brackets.

* Create lists by starting lines with asterisks

1. Create numbered lists by starting lines with a number and a dot

> Quote text by starting lines with >

Mention another user by @username

For syntax highlighting, surround the code block with three backticks:

```
Your code goes here
```
Just like Github, a blank line must precede a code block.

If you upload more than 5 files we will display all attachments as thumbnails.
