Hi Doug
Yup, all compatible. Decent prices as well. I've seen the case and the cpu a couple of quid cheaper but if your list is all from the same vendor then stick with what you've got as you'll only pay (if they charge) one lot of carriage charges. If going XP 1gb of ram will suffice but get 2gb if going for Vista.

Hey thanks for the conifrmation on all the parts. I already have a gig of RAM so was thinking this would just bring me up to 2 GB. I'll still be running XP for the time being I think, not too sure I like the look of vista...new things scare me!
I have another querstion with regards to my current master drive. Its been pretty full for awhile now and I need to switch it to a slave drive. I know all the system files are on it so do I need to copy all those files to my current slave drive before changing them over? Thanks -Doug |
