Ugh, what a build

Wow. That took about 2 hours longer than I had planned for, or wanted it to. The board is one made by some place called the Elite Group, and while the upgrade was to a Duron 1.4 GHz and 256 MB of 333 MHz DDR, the board was lack luster. The board had two different sections for the front panel stuff, which forced me to do some online research and downloading a manual, then there appeared to be a second drive that was recognized when the boot froze, then never showed up again, though noticeably loud clicking appeared to originate from it, possibly explaining it's demise. I left the install at CD key, as he only got the install CD, not the CD key from the giftee. I can only say that from a 400 PII, to a Duron 1.4 GHz will be a major leap for this person, and opens a ton more areas for upgrade without system-wide replacements like this one.
