Well, this is post #1 from Arion. I think I've got the basics up and running. Installed the nVidia GeForce4 drivers for the motherboard (audio, USB, etc.) and then installed the nVidia GeForce 6600 GT drivers for my video card and everything seems to be working well (the latest drivers (version 77.72) didn't work perfectly, so I just rolled back to the WHQL 71.62 drivers - certified by Microsoft to work).

Then I installed Avast! Antivirus and all my Windows updates and everything's running smoothly. I'm currently listening to a classic rock station through Windows Media player (I wonder if Foobar has a 64 bit version?). Oh yeah, I've got Trillian 3.1 running as well.

All installations were managed through Total Uninstall 3.1 - a nifty little program that monitors your installations and can completely remove a program if it's giving you problems - all files, all directories, all registry keys - everything. I'm on day 1 of the 30 day trial, but this is too nice of a program to not register.

Next up for installation - GUILD WARS!
