Useful follow-up notes for and anyone reading this older sale thread.

Before the sale: do a full backup of anything you want to keep, then securely erase all drives. A quick format leaves recoverable data. Use a reputable bootable secure-erase tool (multiple-pass overwrite or the drive vendor's secure-erase command) or physically destroy drives that contained very sensitive info. If you plan to include an OS license with the sale, check whether it is a retail or OEM license — OEM copies are usually tied to the original machine and have transfer limits.

What buyers will expect: verify the machine boots to BIOS/POST, run a long memory test, and check drive health via SMART or a surface test. Verify optical burners read/write and that network adapters connect. If you have screenshots or photos already (thanks for those, ), add clear close-ups of model and serial numbers, the motherboard label, and the inside of the case so buyers can see condition and cabling. Be explicit in the listing about any faults or replaced parts — transparency speeds sales and reduces disputes.

Selling logistics and safety: research recent completed listings for similar kit to set a realistic price. Decide whether to sell as a complete system (easier for a single buyer) or part it out (sometimes more profitable). For local sales, meet in a public place, let the buyer test the machine, and accept cash or an immediately cleared payment. For shipped sales, pack components in anti-static bags, use plenty of padding, insure and require signature on delivery. Reset any networking gear to factory defaults and remove ISP-specific registrations or account links.

Finally, if you need a fallback PC while waiting on the car repair (echoing ), keep a minimal spare or remove a low-value part to reuse later — that can reduce downtime without costing much.

Hey,
I have updated the post with a few pictures. They are not good quality pictures seeing how I took them with a webcam, but they will do for now. I also took a few screenshots of the processor info and display adapter. Thanks
