The first thing I'd do is upgrade to Windows XP.

IMO, the X2 4400 is the second point of upgrade.

If that is OEM vista, will it not throw a wobbly if you change any of those
parts? discuss!

I'm happy enough with the 64bit version of vista. I recently had a mate
drop me around some parts to build him a new computer out of.
Part of this build was trouble-shooting the all the pieces in my PC. It
just noticed the new parts and installed the driver required for it (though
I did wonder what difference was there between my Opty 144 and the mate's
4000+).
The grafix card needed different drivers of course and switching ram didnt
cause any hassle.
I was pleasantly surprised by this.
