Just bought a PC today. Before I boot it I have a small question, I took one look inside, And I looked at what I believe to be my graphics card, it has a cable going into it, and a cable that is not. P-6 is in and P-7 loose. Was hoping someone that know whats they’re talking about could just...

Hi, I have an old Compaq Presario SR5000 (SR5790AN) series PC lying around, and I want to see if I can spend a hundred or two to make it useable again. It doesn't need to run like an absolute beast, just enough to satisfy my dad, an average PC user, for web browsing, email, media consumption...
