What is something I should look out for when building what do you think is
the hardest part of building a pc?

I ordered my stuff NEWEGG, x spider case p4 3.2, gigibyte motherboard, sata
drives, I have not installed sata drives? are there good instructions on OEM
models?

what steps can i do before it gets here? I am reading the manual online for
the motherboard.

Appreciating EVERYONE!

Thank You Thank You,
Mark
 
Being a NewBie Myself who has just completed building his first PC let me
share some of my Observations.

Let me start off with the process was prett easy.
Laying the processor into the MB was scary. Handle Gently. That went ok. The
most difficult thing , for us (my wife and I. I need ed the buy in to this
new pc, so I got her involved), was tracing the wires from the Power Supply
to the MB. Read MB Instructions carefully. When you think you have
understood them read them again. Familiarze yourself with every component in
the system. XP does a good job of Plug and Play.
