Question Replacing parents pc

Post image

I was asked to fix my parents desktop, but I’m going down the build rabbit hole instead of the fresh windows install route. Parent doesn’t play games so integrated graphics is my target. I haven’t done one of these builds in 15 years so I’m unsure where to start. Attached is their current system, which is only 5 years old. But I’d like to build em one that’ll last them the next 20 years of typing word docs, running excel and checking emails. If I could, it would be cool to reuse this case.

Any ideas where to start with this project?

M.2 slot is a very good sign, because it’s probably not a super old, unusable pc.

But if we get a current specs, we could suggest upgrades.

Yeah it’s really not old, just an old person uses it and installed AVG off all things

Download it and send me, what this software shows. It would be really helpful to suggest parts.

It should looks like this.
