My uncle's computer just crashed not too long ago and he didn't want it anymore. So he gave me the hard drive and the RAM out of it. I have no idea how to install the hard drive into my computer. I opened it up and there is a slot above my other hard drive, but I can't fit my other one it in. I could probably force it in, but I'd rather not. And I don't know what plugs to use. What should I do?
And then theres the RAM. I have 4 RAM slots on my motherboard. 2 are red, 2 are black. I already 512MB of RAM in one of the black slots. My uncle gave my 2 sticks of RAM, but I have no idea what kind of RAM they are. I also don't know what kind of RAM I already have in my PC. I'm afraid that I will fry my motherboard if I try to install this other RAM. Any suggestions on anything I talked about in this post?
