Abit IS7 is a great board.

The thing is with getting a new HDD is when i got my PC from Packard Bell they did not suppuly a Windows XP install Disk.

Will it be alright if i used the back up all hard disk tool on System machnic.

Actually i have another plan, i will buy a case that has space for more than 1 hard drive palece therefore i can keep all the old and buy a new 100g + HDD.

If i buy a new Mother Board Or Hard Drive are the cables ect supplied or do i have to get them seperatly.

(my DVD writer came with no cables, i had to take out my othere cd rw.)

Thanks
