Also, I forgot to ask. I'm passing from a x32 to a x64 processor. Do I need to get new HDDs, new sound cards, new WiFi cards, new SCSI cards, new phone cards and new serial cards?
unless you're still using IDE (for the HDD) or something not PCI compatible, I don't think so. Also, what the hell is a phone card?

also im saten's >:-)

The Dial-Up telephone ports. No need to get off my ass to answer the phone.

Sorry, had to. I seen the chance.

But to be serious, I keep getting a error saying that my host file can't be read, its causing me to bsod every so often. I tried online fixes but no luck.

still confused about what that is, but if it uses PCI, it'll still work.

? IDE works perfectly fine with x64 processors.

the BenQ RL2455HM

good monitor for the price?

You're quite correct that IDE works with x64. However, my point was that a brand new x64 mobo (likely this as he was asking about it earlier) does not have IDE ports.

I took the liberty of removing the cards from my PC (with the exception of the WiFi card and the Floppy drive). Which one am I going to need to buy again?

From left to right:
SCSI HDD (Holds WindowsXP and Windows98)
Phone Card
NVidia GeForce (Don't really care since I'm going to get a GTX)
SCSI Adapter
Serial/Parallel Communications Ports
Oldass 512MB Ram Cards (Don't really care)

Not in the picture:
Floppy Drive
Netgear WPN311 WiFi Adapter.

But an IDE adapter card exists, right? .....right?

That happened to me once. Use a knife to straighten out the pins. I'm currently using the CPU that had a silimar incident.
