You need a new system.motherboard wise a good asus board based on the springdale or canterwood chipset should do very well.. but it doesnt support your pentium 3 or your ram.. Bx board days are long gone.

I know that i need a new system but wich montherboard should i get should i get Intel, AMD Athlon XP, AMD Duron?

Off the Top of my Head Asus p4p800 deluxeMSI 865 Neo2These are 865 chipset "Springdale boards" Those two mentioned above perform just as well as a 765 Chipset Canterwood Mainboard because the PAT is enabled on them ... which makes the Springdale the best chipset out there at the moment.read up on them atLost Circuits, Toms hardware guide or Anand Tech

I like www.sharkeyextreme.com which has recommended system configurations for various budgets.Cheers,Joe

Asus P4C800 Deluxe or a P4P800 Deluxe. The AMD 64 FX will be the one to beat once the Opteron (dual channel DDR capable) drops in price, or the FX gets Dual DDR capable, whichever comes first.
