my dads boss gave the comp to another worker and he hired some guy who he had no info on and i guess he "fixed" it and then that worker got fired and the boss gave the comp to my dad and he brought it home..i was like wtf....

The owner of that computer needs to file charges for fraud...
Have him include both the fired workers name and the repair guys name.
Based apon the prices the system cost when it was built your looking at
$500+

Also if you can findout where this "repair guy" works, if it is even remotely
dealing with computers, you can be sure the company would like to know
who they are trusting their business hardware/data too. Now if this guy
still works at a gas station or burger stand they probably won't care...

The good news...
At todays prices you can rebuild that machine for pennies...
