Alright so I just got a bunch of new hardware and I'd like to get it all working and make a working computer out of it. Just a forewarning: I am not that technologically-knowledgeable.
My Hardware:
Mobo: ASUS A8n-SLI Deluxe (nForce4 Chipset)
Graphics Card: EVGA E-GeForce 8800 GT (512-P3-N802-A1)
CPU: AMD Athlon 64 FX-53 (2412Mhz)
RAM: Total of 1GB installed (Can increase)
I'm trying to figure out what would be the best operating system for me. I want to be able to play modern games and do everyday tasks on this computer. Unfortunately, there are no Windows 7 drivers for the nForce4 chipset and I don't know enough to find some that would work. I figure XP would be a much safer and stable OS but it is no longer supported and is becoming outdated. I'd rather not be in need of certain software or something and it only be compatible with Windows 7 and above with no XP version.
So what would be the best option for me overall? And if the verdict is Windows 7, can you guys help me find the drivers and such for my system?
