Ok! I have a PC (wow! really 🙂
No seriously it’s an-
AMD Athlon 2000XP
windows 2000
1.3GB of DDR RAM
40GB IBM C: Drive
40GB Maxtor D: Drive
CDxDVD ROM Drive
CD burner 12X
Network card
Geforce Ti 4600 128Mb Video Card.
Power supply is 230-250 watts I think (Will have to check when I get home)
Now recently the C drive has started playing up. I get errors all the time and strange noises.
SO i am planing to
A- Throw the IBM C: drive replace it with the Maxtor 40GB drive for the system. And buy a new 160GB drive D: for storage.
B- I am also thinking of installing a firewire card.
C- New CPU fan as the older one is going crazy.
D- Buy an external DVD burner. ( To hook up with my new dell Precision M60 laptop)
Now my question-
1- An AMD 2000 XP system is still ok isn’t it for investing the above mentioned upgrades? It’s not like throwing money on a dead horse?
2- Will the power supply meet the demands of all the above mentioned upgrades?
Any suggestion???? Thanks again
P.S- I do graphic and 3d work.
P.S.S – I have noticed that I always get PC proplems exactly around christmas time hmmm!!!
