Can any of my laptop computer parts still be used? I have 3 broken laptops now. I have a Gateway laptop that is 9 years old. It's gotten 7 years of use out of it.

Would it be better, or even reasonable, to build a new computer using mostly my old computer parts? I have about a five year old HP Pavillion. The only thing I've done to my computer is add RAM and a video card so I don't have much experience with this. I want to save money so I just want to upgrade over time. I figure it would be best to start off with a motherboard, processor, and RAM. I'm not sure if my Pavillion case is compatible with LGA 775 types so I would buy an ATX case as well. I would then move all my other drives from my Pavillion to the new case. Does this seem like it would work? Are there any apparent problems that I could come across?
