There should be one. I thought all new ones had them. Even middle to lower end ones.

Got my hard drive and hard drive cooler today. Slapped it altogether rest of the way. Plugged it in and she lives!

Was a bit unsure because of the EBay used processor and I had an issue getting the memory into their slots... They were VERY tight...

Now to get this Linux OS loaded...

I will probably be bald by the end of the night trying to use Linux, we shall se... lmao

I was just looking at your card there. It doesn't seem to have an external power cord. That's crazy, I wouldn't have thought it.

You may want to try a Linux live cd and get the hang of it lol.

Thats how the Kunbuntu starts off.

Ive downloaded the ISO image but when burning via Roxio on ym dads computer it gave me some funky read error when verfying...

Im trying again.

As for the OS. I watched a video on it. Im must admit it looks just like Windows and seems to function the same. The narrator said that most people switching from Windows goto this Kunbuntu and I see why... Well I guess if I can get it to go... lol

if your going to try and run cad ati was a bad choice. alot of the packages dont support it. did you check to see if its a certified card for your program? if it doesnt work let me know i have an nvidea quadro fx550 here from work. work upgraded my pc here to a quadro fx 3500
