She's Up... Sorta.

Recovered the data on the primary drive. That means all of my music and photos survived. But, the drive is corrupt as far as booting the system. New 300 GB drive to the rescue! Problem with the Blue Screen of Death seems to have been centered around improper RAM timing. Run with performance RAM and the price is fickle timing issues! So, system is up on virgin XP install, secondary drive contains recovered data from the past, and currently installing everything from drivers to system updates. Still no sound card installed, no modem, no 3rd and 4th hard disks, and the guts to the whole system are hanging out onto the floor. It's not over 'till the beast is buttoned up and stuffed into the cubby hole.
