That is exactly what I posted above your reply (sans the DVD rom and CD because those are found in the trash now a days). If you wanted you could upgrade the celeron to a PD (108$) and downgrade the Gfx card to an Nvidia MX4000 (32$) but that card is the absolute low end of 128Mb cards.

It's honestly not that hard and there is no real way you can screw it up unless you force a piece where it's not supposed to go (everything only fits in a single spot so there's no way you can really do that). But if you really ARE too afraid to build your own PC you can always go to a local...

Definately look into another company building the machine for you if for some reason your dad is strictly convinced that you can't do it yourself (even with the help of BUILDING COMPUTERS 101) or try and convince him to buy a machine from a local computer tech shop (they will order the parts and...

Yes, temp drops would be the biggest performance increase you'll notice, as well as your ability to breath in your room with the PC on :p

None of the high end PCIe cards are fine with running on that PSU. I would even be scared running my machine off it with the +12 being only 15A. If anything spend the 50$ to get a nice PSU (PSU 101) and then buy whatever graphics card you want.

Just a question, but how old is the mobo to be using SODIMM in a desktop machine?

QUESTIONS 101 Reset the BIOS and reboot it (you'll need to go into the BIOS and save the new settings after the reset).

I'm a good 700+ miles from you. Close enough :p

It was all at one time mine or someone else's that I aquired, if you wanna negotiate for it all be my guest, I wanna try and get a little more for it.

You can have my garage if you wanna come pick it up (for like 200$ maybe?) Pictures are a little out of date but most of the stuff is still ther (along with a ton in my basement and truck) so if you want it shoot me a pm, (I'm about 2 hours from you) P.s. I'll work on getting new pics...

Got mine I'm trying to get rid of. Compaq E500 866 PIII, 11Gb, DVD, 256 (soon to be 512) PC-133, 15" (I believe), wireless PCMCIA card. Only thing really wrong with it is the battery holds 0 charge, so you'd need to use the adapter (or buy a new battery).

The voodoo cards can only be SLI'ed to other voodoo's of the exact same. What you see is probably the TV tuner connected to the DVD decoder (which is needed in old machines like that).

Thanks for resurrecting the dead, time to put it back to sleep.

Yes it can sometimes be a RAM problem, might wanna run memtest86 once to be safe (even if you think it don't need it).

Those are just molex converters to use them with a SATA drive (either HDD or CD).

ESDF for every FPS and I own a Z-board and hate it.

Haven't tried it and it sounds vaguely illegal. Since you can only have one user logged on at one time I'm sure it will give you some sort of no-no.

You don't have to have RAID to have more than 1 HDD.

Why use extra software when windows has it right there?
