How to combat writer's block?

Just make an outline. How long does the paper have to be? If it's just supposed to be a basic 5 paragraph paper, it's standard. Main subject, three major parts (each is a paragraph), min 5 points to make up part (each point should be 1-2 sentences). The break the three major parts back out for the introduction (just INTRODUCE the three body paragraphs), and the conclusion should be the same as the intro, just with all the major conclusions about the points of information, rather than leading into those points. So for setting up a computer:

Building a New Computer:

INTRO Paragraph
(paragraph 1)Point 1. Hardware (I'd actually put about 10 points or more in this paragraph, or even make two paragraphs or three out of it.)
part 1: Case, power supply, and fans
part 2: memory + processor
part 3: hard drives + optical drives
part 4: expansion cards (video, sound, tuner, etc.)
part 5: Monitors, keyboards, mice, printers, etc
(paragraph 2)Point 2. Software
part 1: Operating system
part 2: Application Software
part 3: Games
part 4: Utilities
part 5: Security
(paragraph 3)Point 3. Installation
part 1: Component setup
part 2: Post+Bios
part 3: Operating system
part 4: Driver update, and solidity of OS testing
part 5: Application + Games + Utility + Security software installation plus updates.
Conclusion Paragraph (So now, after selecting and purchasing components and software, and going through the installation and testing process, you now have a new computer ready for the biggest baddest gaming and video editing possible. Try it out! Have fun! Blah blah blah!)

There you go. It's your paper. Add some explanatory words (filler), and ace the assignment.
