No video output / video card or processor issue?

I understand completely... This is what I did, I bought a new motherboard and a new cheap hitachi hard drive (check Frys', I got one 80gb for $30). At the same time I installed my MB, I installed my new HD via jumper as primary. This way, I can format/install a clean copy of Windows...

Access4Less $4.95/mo unlimited dialup

pretty good service, I always get on, but at times my connection speed is 45.2 instead of 52kbps. Well worth the price, can't see paying more than $6 for internet every month (used to pay $8 for talent group, until they doubled their price in the name of some acceleration software!)

USB 2.0 to 1.0 or 1.1?

thanks for all your help... i think I'll just get a 4 port external usb hub (which supports 1.1) , which usually is cheap, and that way i'll get 3 additional ports. It saves me more time than getting a new case and transfering everything around. -dpid
