My machine is old, 12 yrs to be exact. I do believe my hard drive is

anymore.
In other words, I need some words of wisdom regarding what information I
should be looking for. And what should I steer clear of?
As you can tell I really lack computer knowledge.
thanks
If you're forced into Windows 8 install "Classic Shell", stay away from HP/Compaq because of all the crapware. I have a free PC that I installed Windows 7 (Dell 8400 3Ghz,3Gb,320GbHDD, basically ancient) and it runs very well! And there's always Craigslist!
