CHALLENGE ACCEPTED !!
Let's see what we've got ...

Mother Board: GIGABYTE GA-6VXE7+
RAM: SYNNEX PC-133 64M
Graphic Card: AGP-SIXX
Hard Disk: HITACHI 80G IDE
Sound Card: I have a USB sound card, just gotta dig it out
Internet: Currently unavailable, maybe I'll get a working net card someday
Does it boot ?
