New Computer?

[sellwhm]

Hi I am running: MS Windows SP2
Intel Celeron CPU 2.53 GHz 1.0 GB of RAM Intel(R) 82845G/GL/GE/PE/GV Graphic Controller with 2 hard drives(one at 40 gb and one at 80 gb)

I have had this computer since 2004 and its the only computer I have. The fan is louder than heck and I was wondering what could cause this? I can't upgrade the RAM or get a new graphics card since it has two pci slots and 250 watts of power. What should I do?

Get a new PC.

well .... I always say blunt is best :p if you dont mind me asking, what sort of pc would you be looking for, and what kind of budget might you have ?

agreed get a new one

I wouldn't get a new one just because your fan is loud. However, you should get a new one, because computer need to be upgraded every 3 years. Just browse ebay, desktops are insanely cheap. I saw a computer with a core 2 duo, 2gb ram, 200gb hard drive and whatnot for about $300.

Yes Dual Core is the morden solution nowdays.

try to isolate where the noise is coming from, is it the PSU or the CPU fan and replace as necessary.
Although it might be a better idea to get a new PC.
