Mining with PC is no longer possible and/or profitable, your friend will end up wasting a lot of time and electricity and in the end the only thing he'll get is a burned motherboard. Mining requires quite a investment and then you have to spend some more money on electricity. Its better to buy bitcoin instead of spending so much money on mining equipment.

i highly recommend you not to mine bitcoins right now as it is unprofitable thing to do right now because there are a lot of powerful machines that will make your mining unprofitable as they will be more successful at finding new blocks or something like that, though its just my opinion
