Lol, it's all good Diablo. Thats how it's supposed to be, don't ask me why, but thats how floppy cables are made.

HAHAHAHAHA
Yep, Parker is right, I think FDD cables are the only ones made with a twist in it like that (it's normal). Hopefully you never have to use it though. Floppy drives should have all burned up in hell by now!

Floppy's are to old to use anymore..... burn baby burn!!!!

Next thing we are about to do is put the PSU in the case, plug everything in, get the RAM in there, and then turn er on!!!

This is going great, one sick build coming up HL!

awesome build! now make sure you stick around for the after-build parties

Make Vista quicker? ok....

Step 1: format hard drive
Step 2: install Windows XP or Linux

thats the only way it will get any quicker
