I never realized how sickly outdated my old rig was.
But you also have a little more room for upgrading too, without having to scrap this one to build a new rig in the future.
Absolutely dude.

Well I did my first stupid driver error.

Installed the wrong 64bit NVIDIA nForce Serial ATA Controler driver. Accidently put the XP Pro 64bit and kept on crashing. lol It shows I'm getting tired... Fixed it today my rig is stable now.

Need sleep... arg.

@ Hylander_1314, you never actually gave your impression of Vista 64 over XP Pro 32bit, I am reluctant to spend the large bucks for a new OS at this time but may consider it, I supposed I could remove the C-Drive, put a new one in & build a Vista system on that, if I don't like can put my old one back.
