The laptop is in pretty bad shape. Some of the keyboard keys don't work, and the heat sinks/fan are shot so the computer gets really hot. It will overheat and shutdown if you're running a program that uses a lot of resources.
Honestly I probably would have gone out and bought a screwdirver set and just destroyed the computer, but it became a mission to figure out how to do this. I learned a lot about drives. I learned how to use the disk management function in windows to allocate hard drive space and change drive paths. I learned how to manipulate the BIOS and a bunch of other stuff. It was a pretty good experience.
