6 months ago I was given a perfectly good PC at work which was about to be taken to the dump with some others - minus hard drives of course. My boss also gave me a hard drive which he thought had been seriously wiped. I figured out how to connect it at home but my monitor showed "no signal". So I used it as a putting place for CDs.

Today being a rainy, windy sort of day and with a few hours to spare before Waitrose home delivery, I had another go at this PC. I disconnected all interior cables, reconnected and hey ho - text on the monitor telling me it cannot detect a keyboard - I'm in business and it was running Windows 7 Professional - so much for "serious cleaning"!

So piggy backing my main PC's wireless connection, I'm upgrading it to Windows 10 so I can get some practise before our machines are upgraded at work!
