1ST Build UP & RUNNING

I got XP installed 12/14/06. With the help of Build YOUR OWN PC BOOK and help from people on this forum , I have a super fast running machine.I will most likely have some more questions about fine tuning the machine later. Many thanks to all.

Just letting you know, the book has a very nice 'fine tuning' section.

Thanks, I'm kind of happy about getting this thing running. I have more trouble in setting up software than I do with the mechanics of building a PC. I will see you around I'm sure probably the end of next month as I am having to have a heart cathe done on 1/4/07, to try & get a blockage in the lower part of my heart cleared out. Thanks again to all.

You've done well. Congatulations! You'll be fine with the heart cathe. My mother had it performed last month. Hang in there!

Thanks chuck4456. I'm hanging in there. This will be my 2nd heart cathe. I just don't like strange objects being run up in my body. Thanks again & Merry Christmas.
