They all connect hard drive, DVD/CD drive with mobo.

SATA is faster and newer type and not compatible with IDE/PATA.

New mobos don't have anymore both types, as the SATA is in most systems.

What HDD's do u have?

Whats your CPU?

Dual core E2140

Dual core E2140

OK, some 775 socket CPU's are not compatible with all mobos, but yours is just fine.

All u need is LGA775.

And that Biostar will work fine with CPU and the PSU.
