Thumbs up Eureka, it booted


So to all who gave me advice, thank you. Yes, its true, I finally got my first build to boot and Yea, installed XP. I haven't finished, I installing my drivers and updating my drivers, then I have to install my sound card, my tv tuner, my sata controller, the other three drives and the remaining optical, put a filter on the intake fan to minimize dust, and then I'll be done.

The above is gravy, I got my very first system to boot. What an experience! I am actually already thinking about my next build.

Thanks again

Congrats on successfully completing your first build.

Yep, once you've built your first one the urge to build more can be pretty strong.
