slipstream drivers into XP installation CD? [raid drivers] [boot drive]

Q: How would I go about doing something like this? Its just a matter of dropping in the drivers? essence, the goal here is to install xp on a raid boot drive . whether SATA or PATA. The system does not have a floppy, so this is why I do this (and do not “get a floppy as a response). Not only raid drivers, say updated video drivers, mobo drivers or .
appriciate IT,

Q: Im suddenly all sorts of problems loading my WINXP.
I keep getting errors while copying files installation process . and even now still blue screens STOP messages.

The Sims: 512 MB or 1 GB of memory? [deliberation] [video card]

Q: I am building a system for a friend. The game more than anything is that she plays Sims. Originally I was planning to introduce 1GB memory. After some deliberation with others in these forums, I decided that probably 512 would be suitable for her system to build. After I made that decision, another user came and announced that The Sims benefits of 1GB memory. However, if I 512 MB of memory, I can a better video card in the system.
Anyway, I just want to hear your experience if you

Q: I had a bit X800GTO2 but the dust and now I have been limping along on a GF5750 more than three months waiting for a good time to upgrade. Im saving up and waiting to see how fares against ATi GF8800.
But 5750 is driving me crazy, I can play my games, but Super low settings and still the FPS is too low at times. BF2 runs OK, but Elder Scrolls: Oblivion seems to like this card at all. So I just want a small upgrade to me by while I save and look at ATI and NV arguing about DX10.
