I wouldn't mind a second 5GB or so HDD, do then set the Windows Page File to my second harddrive which increases performance.

Or he could run a RAID system, and always have a backup. If I could afford it, I'd do that.

You know Windows XP has a Compatability Wizard so you can play old games (hell, you can even play DOS games).

hmmm......

Maxtor = meh...
Get a WD or Seagate

Videocard...Looks like an ATI would do
9600 pro and above

Two 80GB hard drives could also be set up for RAID

Sim City 2000 runs fine on my machine.

I don't need more than one OS though...or one for games or whatever. I just use the 160GB for everything.
