I pulled a old SFF PC out of my tech teacher's room on the last day of school. After disassembling it, I was happy to see that it was a socket 370 and dropped another 128MB of RAM into it as well as a Pentium III. (coppermine, 866mhz) I also pulled a 2GB hard drive out of a Packard-Bell computer we had in the basement as well...
I am trying to clean off the processors (one original Mendocino Celeron and aforementioned PIII) and the heatsink, I just hope it powers up when I plug it in.
Edit: This thermal paste is like fucking rock... And it feels like gauze... Eww. IC Diamond to the rescue!
Edit 2: Aww jesus, this shit is not coming off. I've tried spit, isopropyl alcohol, and a flathead screwdriver.
Now with pics! Also, butcher knives don't work either. This heatsink literally sticks to the back of a table.
