I have this old IBM Computer sitting around. It is from 1997. Is there anyway to update it. I have a newer HP MOBO from about 2008 or so. Here is some pics of the IBM computer. Please let me know.

Solution
There are no parts within that which are usable on something new(er). Probably not even the case.

PSU? Too small. And old/ready to die.
Drives? IDE, and old, slow & small.
Graphice? You might convince it to play solitaire.
RAM? No.

15 years later, it is just a computer shaped thing. Not much you can do with it.
NO. anything you do to this computer will be more expensive than buing a new one, most parts in that computer is discontinued and really expensive. So you can pay a lot for almost nothing in performance.
