Winfried,
If you stop over @ http://www.krex.com you could pick
up a Soyo-Tek 5EH motherboard ($88), AMD K6/2-380
($36.75) and 64 Meg of PC100 memory ($89). Just
suggestions. The 5EH will fit in either a AT or ATX
case and work off of either power supply.
For gaming, your video card is a little anemic (sp)
with only 2 meg of memory and your CDROM is kind of
slow at 4x.
