Building MAME PC. Have all parts. Where is a good place to find advice?

I'd suggest the following:
1) Sign up for the freecycle (on yahoogroups) within your area.
2) Check out craglist in your area.
3) Watch E-Bay
4) Watch for yardsales.

??? He already has the PC... why would he need craigslist or ebay?
Rackoon, this link should help you out: http://www.pcmech.com/byopc/
Once the system is put together (correctly), installing XP is nothing more than a few clicks and button presses. Read up a bit and google "build your own PC" and you'll find all the info you need. Good luck.

To purchase a cheap, yet legit copy of windows? I didn't see the unedited first message, but judged from the rest of the thread that he didn't have windows and may have asked where he could download a copy or something (due to Saint's message).
So I was offering an alternative way of picking one up.
