It should work fine with a 350/400W PSU. And I think the best way to boot would be by a direct harddrive. For a network you can ghost over a full install onto a small HDD. Or if by USB make sure the drive is a real drive and not just some little USB key.
will a king yes international c.o. ltd ac input 115/230V , 6/3a, 50 HZ dc output kyp-420 atx 320watt +5=25a , +12=10a, -5=0.5a, -12=0.5a, +3.3v=28a, +5vsb=2a. power suppy work?? and i will be useing a usb to ide connector for a dvd-+rw drive and a 200Gb maytor ide hard drive. i am thinking about doing aclean intall of windows xp pro. on the hd. i have a hd with windows xp pro onto it, windows xp pro. on it can i just hook up that hd, with out loseing any data????
That'll depend. You can take that HDD and use it normally on only the computer you have installed Windows with. But you should be able to go onto the HDD and use info, documents, and MP3's, Programs. Some stuff might not work right if you try to run Windows from the drive with a different computer. EDIT: And that PSU will be fine unless you want to use a high end video card(7600GT and up or X1600XT and up) or lots of drives.
