Updating again. Sorry if I'm being annoying.
I have a question, though. When I get this new processor and motherboard, am I going to need to reformat my hard drive and do a clean install of windows, or can I boot up into XP and just install the motherboard drivers? Also, this board supports SATA hard drives, which I do not have currently. What would happen if, say, I bought a SATA HD to run windows off of, and had an older HD that doesn't have SATA for saving my mp3's and what not on? Would that be possible? Would it slow down the system at all?
