Almost three hours later and I've finally got my internet connection up, graphics card reinstalled, and audio card installed. Everything is buggy though...it's having problems rebooting and getting massive slowdowns here and there. =[
Every time it restarts it seems to think it has improperly shutdown...

Another 1:45 and all XP updates installed. Hacked out the bugs and stuff, running smoothly. Now to work out getting my built in soundcard to coexist happily since it has 2 extra USB ports I need...(it usually doesn't even coexist with ITSELF happily)

I've just gone to XP with service pack 1 installed and I have to say its the best operating system yet from microsoft, I have no regrets at all.
