The specs sound fine, but I might go with 4 GB of RAM and Windows Vista instead of XP... The graphics handling on Vista is much more appropriate for what you want to do.

The motherboard you picked requires DDR2 RAM and doesn't go with the DDR RAM you picked.
I'd advise you to pick Windows XP Pro
Microsoft won't like this but, don't use Windows Vista, it will suck up the resources which you need for your video editing.

Use Win XP Pro, it's much better, than Vista. Vista is a bunch of bugs with a lot of system requirements.
Very good piece of videoediting software - Vegas Pro.
Perhaps, you should put more RAM. Like 4 Gb. Video needs a lot of memory!

How about using Vista. if you hate the OS, use XP MCE. That was a good spec.They will work. But, you should consider a video editor such as Ulead VideoStudio.
