Hi,
Let me chime in here to say that yes, you may need assistance (and not
necessarily sighted assistance) but not because you can't see.
In other words a totally blind person can do complete XP installs, I've done
far too many myself of late do to changing hardware needs and upgrades to my
I've installed XP manually several times. The only thing you may need
sighted assistance on for the first few times is the entry of the product
key. Once you've done that it should be pretty straightforward once you've
memorized the keystrokes.

Ar, Vista would be slightly easier then as the product key is only required
if you wish to commit to the licence and thus activate the product. When you
install Vista without a product key it will run as a 30 day, fully
functional trial.

Running a computer without a cooling fan is asking for trouble. If it can't
stay cool, the components will overheat and the computer will be nothing
more than a huge paperweight.

It can fry it. There are two fans: The PC fan, and the motherboard fan.
The computer tries to save itself, but there is only so much it can do. The
PC fan can be fixed (by a replacement fan) fairly easily. When the
motherboard fan goes, so does the motherboard; and that all takes longer and
A replacement fan doesn't cost too much, and only a day or so's loss of work
on the affected PC.

If you are into fixing things, many of these fans just need a drop of

You're talking about the chip fan and they too can beoiled in the same way.
There is however another one, in the power supply.
Again you should have some basic knowledge about electrical things and a

And if I might add... If you are going to oil the fan, as I have also done,
use something like 3 in 1 oil. Do not use WD40. WD40 breaks down and
evaporates in a very short time. 3 in 1 oil does not break down and will
last a very long time.

Usually you will have to change the power supply. Although the fan can be
separately replaced it is about as cheap to replace the entire power supply,
usually a couple of bolts and the rest plug to the computer components.
About a hundred bucks.
