Various PC parts wanted

[Kris]

I'm after some various PC parts to get an old system I've just accquired on a network with my current PC. Thought it would be nice to learn networking and have something for backups.

Can someone point me in the right direction for the following (I only want cheap parts because I'm wary about the actual overall reliability of this system I've just accquired):

2 Ethernet Cards
Graphics Card (current one is jumpy and doesn't always work properly)
KVM Switch

Cheers.

Any computer fair should have the parts you're after, usually pretty helpfull too. They sell allsorts there so the trip should be worthwhile.

I've got a 16mb Voodoo 3 that you can have for £5 and free postage if you want it Kris

Is it PCI or AGP?

Never really noticed any PC fairs in my area but eBay seems to have the stuff I need very cheap.

Agp

I've got some oldish PC bits too, including PCI graphics if needed .

Very tempted by narabdelas Voodoo. I'll let you know in a few days.

I'll just get the system back up and running (corrupt start up) and then I'll let you know.

Kris, If you still need 2 Ethernet Cards, PM me your address and I'll post you a couple of 3com 10/100 Mb cards that are going spare. No cost, they came out of some Tiny PC's I scrapped at work.

PM sent.

Cheers!

I'm after a PCI graphics card if anyone has one.

Turns out the AGP slot is busted.
