I got ASRock 990fx extreme3. 2 stix of 4gb of ram. And 8 core amd 3.5 processor. Along with a new tower. I'm using my old cd drive and hard drive. And a new powersupply. I bought windows 7 but have yet to even be able to boot computer past startup repair. Quite frustrating. Tried doing a restore, but that failed as well. Im tech savy enough to piece this together myself but not to trouble shoot past this point. So right now I have vista still going, and im not tooooo sure what to do.
