Processor and other things...

One question I have been meaning to ask you guys for which you may have an answer...
The OS system would obviously be Windows 7 with the new build BUT, I'd prefer to actually use good old Windows XP Professional ( which I already have) as, I have some legacy software ( for my cameras ) which apparently doesn't work with Windows 7 for some reason.

Would Windows XP Pro work with the new set-up and if so, is it possible to set up and use a dual OS selected at boot-up? ( ie: W7 or XP pro)

yes, yes and yep.:)
 
re a card reader, they are all much of a muchness, we've used several different types where i work.

best bet is to go for the cheapest that has all the card options you need

summat like this should probably do

http://www.overclockers.co.uk/showproduct.php?prodid=FL-004-AK

and as one of the reviews says it will read cards of over 4gb. some of the unbranded real cheap ones and even some not so cheap wont read cards above 2gb
 
yeah but if you select home premium or lower it says you're not eligible for it,

tho it gives you the opportunity to upgrade to pro or ultimate, how kind :p
 
Just been going through the list again and noticed there wasn't a CPU cooler on there! As it's not a bare bones kit, I presume I'd need a cooler..is that right and if so, which would be suitable?
