The new PC rebuild not going to plan then ;o) -- Steve Parry http://www.gwynfryn.co.uk http://www.arrivedeprived.org.uk/ K100RS SE F650 (not forgetting the SK90PY)
Bear says... I was taking the piss, his PC is all up and running and seems to be pretty good so far. He's discovered a whole new world of superb graphics in games, so hasn't posted since it was built.
Of course you can. They just dont work too well when you have. allegedly. -- ColonelTupperware, spouting bollocks on Usenet since 1997 Usenet FAQ at http://www.its.caltech.edu/its/services/internetapps/news/news2.shtml UPCE FAQ at http://upce.org.uk/ UKRM FAQ at http://www.ukrm.net/faq/

Pip is still trying to locate his strong point. Jack of all trades, shite at most. Education seems to result from getting into a hole and finding out what bodge works to get out of it. "Mr Red Shirt" - the ST equivalent of the old Cortina in The Sweeney. I actually don't have a problem with (re)building PC componentry, it's the software side that freaks me out; not least because OSses break so easily when I'm only in the same building. Still, each to their own, I say - get a man in wot knows wot he's doing: Christofire stepped in for me once again and all is fine, despite my best attempts at a) spending far more than I should have and b) ordering the wrong bits just because I could. The new beast in the old box now runs Doom3, UT2004 etc at a very decent framerate and pisses through Solitaire like it was standing still, thanks to the very gay, turquiose-illuminated LED PCIExpress graphics card that was an unexpected expense due to me obtaing a mobo without AGP.
Oh, that's easy - you could do it. You have got an IDE cable for it, haven't you? Let me know if not, I'll have a look in my box of bits at the weekend.
