I had that until 2001 when, I finally got sick of the restricted architecture setup that had been installed on the PC and, one day, I just walked out of my apartment, in the direction of the dumpster. The PC made it to the dumpster before I did, since, I threw the piece of junk across the parking lot with, it landing in the dumpster. I am so glad to be rid of it.
My next PC two 2yrs. to build because, I had to buy all the individual parts and, put it together, myself. I hate the PC's that, you can buy all put together with, parts that are of the poorest quality. I did do one stupid thing. The RAM memory was too fast for the original CPU which, I did not pay attention to. I started out with an Abit KA7-100 board that I fried. I then went to an Epox mobo that, was damaged by my mother's stupidity. I now have a SOYO 7VBA133U. That works great. Christopher ------------------------ Yahoo!
