How do I upgrade my desktop? What are the steps, what kind of problems I will encounter (eg. Bios etc), how much budget should I expect to get the desired results.
Ok my current system specs are as follows.
Current system specs
Motherboard
Intel (Santorini) Motherboard 933MHz Pentium III R2
Memory -
256-MB 133/100/66-MHz 64-Bit 4-Clock 16x16 SDRAM DIMM
Hard Drives -
Western Digital 40-GB 7200-RPM Ultra ATA/100 Hard Disk Drive
What I want is a mother board of about 3 GHz capacity Pentium 4, Memory of about 1 GB, hard drive 80 GB (I have only one slot for the hard drive left so I have to remove the old one and install a new hard drive),
finally I want to intall a Geforce 3D video card that is lacking on my desktop for faster graphics (please advice what capacity of Megabytes is prefrable lets say for a game of Delta force Typhoon Rising kind, just for example),
maybe a tv tuner card.
Do I need to change the bios? Or is it built in the new mother board (lame question, sorry)?
