Hi Harry here, by the by I know a Stephen Judd in Greytown, Hot 
guitarist. I've got an Asus terminator 1100 pc and am trawling around 
for a pci graphics card. Currently looking at the
geforce4 mx 440 pci. 200 bucks. Any comments on this would be cool. also 
petrified by the order of events i.e do you change the bios before or 
after you jam the thing in it's slot? Do you load the drivers before you 
put the hardware in? H.
