Well yeah, obviously. ;D
It's working fine now, but it was kind of a pain to get it adjusted just right. I actually did pick up all new components to build the PC for this (ASUS M4A785-M mobo, AMD Athlon II X2 250, 2GB PC2 8500, Seagate Barracuda 7200.12 hd). So it's not top of the line, but it's got enough spunk to run everything I care to play.
Rick:
This is amazingly beautiful. My Wife would love it as well.

Thanks, guys. It's now taken its rightful place near one of the windows in the living room, and I'm having almost as much fun playing it as I did tinkering with the construction of it. Golden Axe (and sequel), Rampage, and good old Pac-Man seem to get the most play around here so far. My daughter and I were playing Rampage last night, and hearing her gut laugh when she figured out that you can eat the other player after they turn back into a human was priceless.
She tends to be drawn to the more violent games... Should I be worried? >:D
