Hey,
Right now I am using a Nvidia GeForce2 mx video card with 32MB of memory on it. I'm looking to upgrade to something better than that. Can anyone advise me here? I'm not a big gamer or anything like that. My PC is a 4yr old HP Pavilion6630 500mhz celeron processor running WindowsXP Home Edition with 256MB ram. I also ordered another 265MB SDRAM PC133 from amazon.com in hopes I can get my PC up to 512MB of memory. I was kinda leaning towards a 128MB Graphics card from Nvidia because I heard Longhorn is Graphics intense and you'll need at LEAST that much. But Maybe 64MB is good enogh for what I need 2 accomplish. I basically use this PC for internet e-mailing/chatting, online streaming media, and web surfing. Anyone have any suggestions for me and where I might find cheap deals on it?
While I'm on the subject of hardware.....I wanna upgrade my hard drive too. I'm still using the 10GB drive it came with originally. Any suggestions for this as well?
I also ordered a maddog multimedia entertainer 7.1 DSP sound card and should get it in a few days here. I read its comparable to the Soundblaster Audigy and Audigy2 and has better value for the money. Anyone else use this card and can comment on it? Website is

Thanks for any help here. Normally I know what I'm doing and what I want, but it doesn't hurt to gather a few 2nd opinions 1st.
