First timmer, wanting to build a PC.

I hope that I am in the right section here. If not, please excuse my post. However, I believe this would be a very basic question and would more than likely end my first time attempt at building a computer if the answer would be a yes.

Would I need another stand off computer while in the process of building a desktop personal PC?

What do you mean by "stand off computer"?

not really, you will have to have the drivers and various motherboard software on disk but you don't need a computer to build another one. Check in the General Hardware section for MechBgon (?), he has some great step by step pics to building your first computer. If you had the skills to find this forum, you have the ability to build a pc.
