A very complicated repair on this Toshiba T4400SX/C - dead PSU, dead display, dead CPU, dead hard drive, dead(ish) floppy drive! The only thing good about it was the physical condition! Come watch me fix it up and then play around with it a bit!

Disclaimer!
I am NOT an expert, I have genuinely NO idea what I'm doing, and mostly just glue things together and use a lot of Google-fu until stuff works. I've been tinkering with electronics since I was a kid, but have no formal training and will probably do things incorrectly. If you learn something from this, that's awesome, but trust me - I'm learning too!
