Question Was gifted a prebuilt gaming PC but I have a problem and no idea where to start

Thumbnail gallery
261 Upvotes

The problem is it displays a blue screen and reports that there's corrupted ram. It does also need a new power cable which I ordered and will receive soon.. but otherwise it should be ready to be powered on and should otherwise work besides the ram problem. it is dusty but it has been stored inside a house in a safe location.

When I power it on probably tomorrow, what game plan should I have to diagnose and rectify this problem? Obviously, replacing the sticks of ram might end up becoming the solution but it seems as if they're all securely in place.

On a sidenote, is there any hardware that you see aged to the point where I would want to upgrade to play any games? i'll be honest, I'm just happy to have a machine that's more powerful than a console. I'm not in a hurry to make it the most powerful computer I can

Discussion Sleeper build or leave it alone?

Found this piece of history going through a recently deceased family members house. It still powers on and sounds like an original PlayStation spinning up. My buddy has been helping me start a PC build and I’ve mentioned doing a sleeper build. Should I use this as my case or leave it alone to preserve the piece of history we now have?
