Problems putting together a new system!

The biggest problem i had was some bad advice from a friend about installing a 98 boot disk and then installing W2K when i could have just installed W2K. Thanks NUTNDUN for helping me out. Also i have large hands and it was difficult to put all the wires and cables in place without damaging anything important. My advice to people would be to take your time and verify advice people give you before you begin.

Glad to see that I am not the ONLY one with FAT Fingers.

...not only that but my eyes are pretty rotten also.

Not only was it hard getting all those itty-bitty wires attached, but It was hard seeing where they should be attached...Oh Well...part of the overall experience, I guess.

Ouch, and it would seem that the artistic side is not a certain persons only forte. Damm, nice one though.
