    Thanks Slicker. Now to convince, "she, who breaks my stones over crunching" that I need to replace my rig.

    I don't know about an all nighter might be an all weeker. I think it will take me a little longer than you guys as I am still a novice.

    Hahaha... I'm no novice having built my first system around 1988. It was a 286 to replace the IBM "True Blue" I fried when I dropped a PCI slot cover screw on the MB while it was powered up. It can still take me many hours to build a system depending on how creative I need to be with the innards.......
