What you will need:
A case; motherboard; Graphics card; sound card; PSU; processor; RAM; Hard disk drive; CD drive; Floppy disk drive.
Lets go now:
First we will need to put in our PSU, as this is the easiest thing to do and it helps when nothing else is in the case, what you will need is to get a screwdriver to fit the installation screws, now you will need to find the PSU bay, usually at the top of the case. This is easier to do when your case is on its side. Once you have slot the PSU in place insert the screws, now you have done this we can go onto the next thing, the motherboard.
Now we need to insert the motherboard. You will be supplied with screws to hold your motherboard in place so you will need to collect a screwdriver that will fit these. For the next part we recommend that you have an anti-static wrist band. Now you will need to insert your little metal plate that came with your motherboard. This will go where the ports would go on the back of the case. There may already be a metal plate in their from when your case was made but just push this out slowly with your hands. Next pick up your motherboard and align it with the way that it will fit into your case, lower the motherboard until it is resting in the place it needs to go. Now take the screws and put the little red washers on them. Drive all the screw into the holes. You may notice that some will not go in, don't worry but make sure that you have some around the edge in place and some in the center. Connect you PSU to your motherboard with the 20 pin connector.
The next thing you will need to connect any front panel USB/audio ports to the motherboard. Please refer to your motherboard and case manual on how to do this as there is to many motherboard for me to cover
Next we will do the graphics card, which would usually connect to a spare Pci slot but the more modern ones connect to an AGP slot. Insert your graphics card into the correct slot and insert the screw to secure this. Also in this step we will cover graphics cards so you should do the same as before but enter the sound card into a PCI slot. You may have to connect a little lead from this to the CD-ROM drive so I will cover this later.
We are now going to insert the Hard Drive. Put the hard drive in one of the 3.5 inch internal bays and secure with the screws provided. If this is you main hard drive you will need to set the jumpers as master, you may need to refer to manual for instructions on how to do this. Supplied with you motherboard should be a ribbon cable. Connect this to the ide_1 socket on your motherboard.
