Required Tools for PC Repair?

kennethrona asks: "I seem to be spending a lot of my time installing friends' WiFi access points, replacing power supplies, hard disks, blocking ports, installing software, etc. I can usually find any of the software I need on-line, but am thinking about putting together a "toolkit" for PC repair. What tools, both hardware and software, does the community think are essential for PC repair? Bonus points for free software (I always install a free firewall and spyware checker). Also, keep in mind that most folks are running Windows."

Magnetize screwdrivers ... by Bazouel · 2003-08-02 16:08 · Score: 4, Interesting

You should magnetize screwdrivers if they aren't already. It is not dangerous and it saves the day when you drop that damn little screw into the case, especially if it's a laptop :)
