Hi,
My dad's pc (specs below) had been giving temperature warnings (stating that the fan was not working) for sometime and now it seems to have died (he claims cpu looks deformed/"soldered on") and the system won't power up.
Is there anything that can be done to save the PC? Or is he better off purchasing a new one?
Any suggestions/help greatly appreciated.
