Awesome I'm going to start getting everything together then and we'll see how it goes.

The VGA will work though? At least for a bit? XP Pro vs. Vista? I already have XP Pro and love it.

Yeah that's what I meant. Other people here probably have way better advice for you though. I'm just getting back into this stuff.

Will it do alright to begin with though? If I use it for a month then it wasn't a waste of money and I won't have to set a memorial service for more wasted money. It's all about peace of mind at this point. The thing that really ticks me off about this is I went to a company that built me a...

Ok here are my drives and other stuff HD: Maxtor DiamondMax 21 STM380215AS 80GB 7200 RPM 2MB Cache SATA 3.0Gb/s Hard Drive Floppy: SONY Black 1.44MB 3.5" Internal Floppy Drive Model MPF920 Black If those are still fine I'll just use those. I can replace the DVD-Rom no problem. So what do...

Well crap. Let me find out what drives I have. Do you know from the MoBo that they're IDE or are you just assuming cause it's an old comp? I'm not sure how much overclocking I'll be doing. I might try it. What are the cons of it? Oh and the deactivated items that I listed are parts that...

So here's what we have so far: Processor: Intel Core 2 Duo E8500 Wolfdale 3.16GHz 6MB L2 Cache LGA 775 65W Dual-Core Processor MoBo: ASUS P5N-D LGA 775 NVIDIA nForce 750i SLI ATX Intel Motherboard - Retail RAM: G.SKILL 4GB (2 x 2GB) 240-Pin DDR2 SDRAM DDR2 800 (PC2 6400) Dual Channel Kit...

My bad about the multi-post. I just want to make sure to address each persons post. I'll check out that link then.

It's actually a 939 socket. I don't want anything to do with the motherboard except get a little warmth from the fire it'll be in once my new comp is up and running.

It's a PCI-E. I wouldn't mind upgrading the RAM and was thinking about it anyways.

The Power Supply and the graphics card are new and have only been used to see if that was the problem with the computer. If I could still use those I'll be happy. The sound card was in the comp from the beginning. I'd be willing to toss in another $500 or so. I figure I only need a new...

Asus A8N32-SLI Deluxe. I'm sick of trying different things just to have it not work. It's been 2 years so I just want to build a new rig. Any advice preferably using the parts I listed would help.

Any advice would help. Thanks again.

Yeah it is a very bad reply. Sorry man.

I got this motherboard 2 years ago and I haven't had that computer working for more than a week at a time. It randomly just shuts down and is generally just useful for raising my blood pressure. I'm now looking to salvage what I can from it and start anew. That motherboard is just a headache...
