^you mean pentium Pro most likely.^ here's what I would suggest if you want something decent and useable... Socket 939 venice AMD Athlon 64 3000+ 1gig dual channel DDR400 PC3200 Ram x800 GTO or 6800 with unlocked pipelines
my comp: AMD 2700 (i know its old.... but im upgrading soon) 2 Gigs Ram dual channel DDR400 PC3200 Ram 2x 1gig matched Pair ATI Radeon 9800XT OC 15% 1 Terabyte HD 17 ' monitor Modded Case (2x blue Cold Cathodes, Blue LED Fans, See thru side)
I use an alienware m7700 laptop. 3.4 GHz, 2 GB RAM, 17" widescreen, nVidia 6800 Ultra. But worst computer ever... I still have a Tandy 2000. <_<
you cannot unlock pipelines on a pci-e 6800, only on the agp versions. As for your parents pc, chuck 95 on it.

I have an old comp, but it does the job. 264 or whatever around there RAM 40 Gig HD 17 Inch Monitor Cable Modem and Wireless Router. This thread is freaking retarded by the way.
dont upgrade to 64bit windows, you will lose software and hardware support and there is not advantage, there is a disadvantage in switching.
