    I use Win2000Pro SP3, 870 Intel CPU, Quadro FX 500, 512 RAM

    XP Pro will work just fine, but I personally like Win2000 better.

    Regards,
    Scott

    The Athlon XP is a pretty good chioce IMO, I have 3 PC's at home all
    with AMD CPU's and couldnt be happier. My main set up is using the
    nForce2 chipset and works well. For your video card I would still
    stick with nVidia. I run all ATI at home, but I still think nVidia has
    the best compatability and drivers for Pro cards (although ATI is
    catching up FAST!).

    I think that WinXP is the best choice for your OS.
