I am quite curious how you managed to break the BIOS in the first place. I mean, it is quite easy to do, but it is interesting to know.

I am not good with physical tasks, so hardware isn't really my strength. I have done it, had to assemble a handful of computers once. Still doesn't change the fear I have of it. The CPU in particular makes me terrified to touch. I know the parts and what to do, but it sure doesn't make me feel more comfortable doing it. I have my father assemble my computer, he has very steady hands and works with small electronic parts all day, so I feel a lot more confident with it in his hands than my own.

I have done maintenance to my machines, I have a huge case at 380mm x 502mm x 640 mm that is quite difficult to carry up a flight of stairs. Needless to say, I troubleshoot it and maintain it. Resetting the bios is easy enough usually.

It feels good knowing that I can actively purchase upgrades for my PC now. There are so many luxuries I never got to appreciate in the past.

If they are playing games, the video card could be a problem, but if they are just using it for Facebook browsing I would doubt that being the issue.
