Quote:Fun times! the 600 watt power supply I purchaced apparfantly burned out my old processor or motherboard, so now I just purchaced a a new pair: nforce4 mainboard with an atathlon 64 processor. the kicker is that the board dosent support AGP vid cards, so I had to buy a PCI express card as well-_- Now I cant get the damn thing to boot from floppy so I can delete my harddrive and re-install windows.Oh gosh. Sounds like my kitchen or bathroom projects. They usually start with a leaky gasket and end with new appliances, counters, cabinets, tile, light fixtures and paint.
edit: got my system to boot, and re-downloaded the data lifeguard tools that let me format my HD, so a quick format and XP-reinstall and I'll be up and running with my brand new, tiny god.
Question though: when a motherboard has Dual-Channel DDR does that mean you can put two same-gig ram sticks and gain additional performance from them?
