Well, we decided to go with a Pentium D and an ECS mobo, in part
because it was on sale, and it did have a Via chipset toward which I
have a favorable bias. Bought a new HD, 1 Gig memory, and a 'nice'
case, too, and ended up spending more than we had originally thought -
about $600.
All went quite well. Installed flawlessly and updated without a
glitch. I'd also like to thank Mandrive for a good product - very
impressive. Again, it went better than many M$ installs I have done
[not to mention the lack of reboots :-)]. With the larger disk space,
I added a lot more software too. Ran fine on my LAN with all of this.
I told her I though it was a remarkably good machine. Brought it over
to her place, plugged in the printer [HP LJ 4ML], and connected it to
that net. Printer would NOT print, although it did on the old machine,
and in the brief time I was there, I could not get the net connection
to work either, although it did work on my LAN.
So - everything went exceedingly well until I was there - talk about
looking like an idiot. :-))
What Power Supply did you get?
