Well, I was aware of them claiming that graphics cards manufacturers say they need more power than they actually do, hence what I posted earlier.

Having said that, I would imagine the GF3 TI200 is...

Let us know how you go on, others will probably look at this while we are asleep and may have alternative suggestions.

Well you could try, as it may be that your 98 disc is scratched.

If 2000 also takes hours to install, then you know your CDs are not the problem.

Also, that machine is a 1Ghz P3. With the 512mb...

Hello Kizzy,

I've experienced this on one occasion in the past and unfortunately, it turned out to be a hard drive gone bad.

What exactly led to you wanting to reinstall Windows?

Check that you haven't accidentally knocked a jumper off the back of the HD.

Otherwise, I'm afraid your old power supply may have taken your hard disk with it. :(

You could be right with the power supply. But one thing I do know is that Dell underrates its power supplies, so that 250W Dell is probably more like a 350W generic, which might actually stand a...

That's a good question, did you reinstall Windows when changing motherboards? Or are you using the hard drive 'as was'?

If you did reinstall, then I'm sorry to say that your graphics card is...

If you could find another 64 megs of RAM, Windows 2000 would run pretty good on that system

Cards to consider:

GeForce 6600GT
GeForce 6800GS
Radeon X800GTO

Anything less than a 6600GT is not worth it IMHO.
