looks good, i would drop the 56K modem if it is possible, probably just going to sit there and use system resources. Possibly upgrade the motherboard to premium since that will get you the heatpipe setup instead of the faulty fan setup for the chipset. I dont know if i would go with the Windows XP 64Bit. There is driver concerns there with older hardware (i.e. 56K modem) even though they are only charging you 46 bucks for it I dont know if you will regret it, i dont think the performance gains have been realized yet for 64bit. Also you have a SATA motherboard but an old IDE hard drive, I would recommend upgrading to a SATA hard drive, if you have the featured mide as well use them. Just my 2 cents. Sweet system i think you will be more than happy
 
Does this look better? Any other adjustments I should make? Also on the CD drive will this one do everything I will need? Thanks..
