Hello all, one of my hard drives gave up the ghost last night:mad: , tried everything to fix it, to cut a long story short, i am now going to get a new pc:) , i want to buy the Motherboard and Processor and build it myself, using some donor parts from my current pc, i also want to buy Windows Media center 2005 to run on it,

Is there anything to look out for? IIRC there were some issues when MCE first came out, it not fully working on all Motherboards/Pc's?

the Motherboard i am looking at is

Gigabyte GA-965P-S3, P965, Socket-775, ATX, SATAII, GbLAN, DDR2, 1xPCI-Ex16

Thanks guys!;)

min spec for non-HD system is 1.2Ghz P4 with 256MB RAM, so yes it will be fine.
