One more question please.
I really need to choose a case.
The new varieties show the power supply mounted on the bottom and I found one that I like.

Presently building a new/old machine to run 2002 era games.
The motherboard is a new (old Stock) Asus P5K which will be receiving a LGA Core 2 Duo.

Hy;
Pretty much what it says.
I'm looking at downloading 64 bit Cinnamon.
I'd like to install this on my Intel Win 7 second drive of 25 gigabytes. (also 64 bit)
This to play with prior to putting together a newer computer.

I've had a great run with a Gigabyte computer that I put together in (or about) 2002 with your help.
I enjoy building machines but my brain is a little light with software.

I'm rural so I can't use Steam...
Yesterday I posted on the General Gaming Community concerning the above title.
Actually the post should have gone here in view of the fact that I must make a hardware change.
I really enjoyed this game in the past.
Unfortunately I have not been able to play it for some years.
This due to the...
