Thanks everyone for the responses. I'll run memtest86 and see what I get. My HDD is IDE and so is my CD-ROM, but they're both on their own cables. The reason I concluded that the blue screens were caused by my hard drive is because I just recently dealt with a friend's computer that wouldn't boot into Windows because of bad sectors. It didn't go to the blue screen of death, it just said disk boot failure. So I told him he needed a new hard drive, he bought one, I installed Windows, everything was fine.

So anyways, I'll do that memtest. I could be totally wrong about my 200GB hard drive though.

Second hand Althlon XP processor seems like your easiest option to me. I'm sure you can find one.


Well, I did a bit of searching, and resellers that do actually still sell them are selling them for $100-$200, which is totally ridiculous. So, I checked ebay, and they are reasonably priced, but they're all used. I'm not sure if that would be alright.
