    Heh, I would be tempted to if I knew what I was doing. I'm not completely computer illiterate, I've formatted my hard drives and reinstalled Windows XP before, and I've done some minor hardware stuff (switching video cards etc). But I really don't have the knowledge to build a computer from...

    Thanks for all the help guys, I really appreciate it. I noticed on the NCIX.com site that they will build & test the system for 50$, which is great since I won't have to find someone to do it here (which would probably be more money).

    I do have my Windows XP disks from my old computer, and I recently got a laptop as a gift for school that came with the Windows Vista disks and stuff. Could I possibly save the money on buying the operating system again? If so, are there any areas I could go a bit bigger? Maybe the video card...

    Hello everyone! My computer's video card died a few months back, and since then I've been using my parent's computer to game with. Unfortunately I'll be starting my second year of college in September, and since I'm moving away I can't take their computer with me. Besides, their computer isn't...
