Computer Tool Kit

Well, It will be 6 months since I got my first IT support job

{yipee} anyways I dont have a pc tool kit as yet. My company will be paying for one to be sent to me. I will also be taking it home with me to do weekend jobs as well--but may get my own set. Any recommendations on a good pc tool kit??

This should be enough to get you started. You could also go for a POST-card kit, but they're not cheap. If you are in US, you can get the kit below at CompUSA, $49.99

Wow...this is quite the toolkit. I just got a cheapy toolkit off of www.outpost.com. I think it ran me like $10.00 and haven't needed another part since.

None of you has mentioned the sledge hammer, because there will be those days...

Sledge Hammer is definitely a must have for an repair person! haha. Either that or be willing to administer a drop kick out the window!

I almost used my sledgehammer today. Yesterday, I bought a M$ Wireless Optical Desktop. It's hard to believe, but the drivers are not compatible with WindowsXP ???? Huh? Yeah, that's what I thought. M$ can't make their own drivers. I even tried downloading the newest version from M$.com, and still, when I ran the program, I always got prompted to inform me I was trying to use un-signed drivers. I even spent three hours on the tele with them, to no avail; other than my cross-country phonebill!! stupid #$^&#$^!!!!!!!!!!!! Oh well, I have jumped ship, and after some configurations, am wickedly pleased with my new LOGITECH desktop set. This has so many features, I don't know what to do with them all. Plus, it was on sale for $30 less than M$.
