which forum would be good to read and post regarding system building?

I don't have any other 240 pin dimm modules around. The only reason I don't just send the mobo back is I'm not sure if thats the problem. I have 2 new ones like it in transit so I guess I'll see what happens with tem. I'll post my results and findings so maybe someone else can benefit from my...

Funny you mentioning that. I have considered writing an in depth how to guide or maybe a book once I know it all, LOL.

I am looking at mobo info & specs online and I can download the manual so that's good. How about HDD's, does it mater if I use SCSI, SATA or EIDE?

I see some mobo's that say "supports Raid" but doesn't indicate levels. How do I know for sure? On the one's that do, is there anything special required of the hard drive other than having 2. My understanding is if the mobo bios has the settings to configure, then the mobo supports it and it...
