For just a second I thought that you really did have the best computer ever
assembled...
but then I saw to this part:


LBA sectors : 488281250


I just saw one a few days ago that was pretty similar to yours but it had
488281252 LBA sectors...
so you may as well just toss out that old junker.
If you want to ship that old clunker to me I'll take it down to the
recyclers
and save you a trip <G>

I have my sectors zipped, when unzipped they are 1988473890, which is
substantially better.

Oh my...

By the time it gets here it will be obsolete...

Personally, intel sucks.
I've run both intel and amd athlon on "secondlife" and amd is by far
faster.

Nope. It's a consumer-grade computer suitable for personal use or as
a workstation.

I have had 3 Dell computers and never had problem #1 out of any of
them. Order it, when it arrives all you have to do is format and
reinstall straight XP that is on an installation disc they send with
the system, and you are good to go.

Never had any fan problems, power problems, hard drive crashes, etc...
nothing. I am totally satisfied. In fact, I just retire all my old
Dell's, they never quit, kind of like a freaking Toyota.
