Well, maybe I spoke too soon about my video card problems. When I got home from work, the kids were playing Age of Empires. There was no sound and the colors of the ground was pink. I could not get the sound to work or the color right so I shut the machine down. Later, I booted the machine up again and ran AE. This time, it looked good. However, the kids were playing the Train Simulator. It supposedly rebooted the computer during the game. I'll have to play around with it more some other day. Perhaps one of the changes I made in the BIOS is causing a problem.

Dan,
Actually, we have three (running) PCs in our house. One is a FreeBSD firewall. One is the "parents" computer--an HP Pavilion zx5000 portable. The last one is my old 1.2 ghz desktop. I'm trying to get it working for the kids so they can have something to play games on etc.
I totally agree with you about not wanting anyone to touch my computer. I don't even want my wife installing anything or making changes on ours. LOL. The ideal scenario would be one PC for each person, but that's not realistic.
Thanks for the comment. It's the first on my humble blog and made my day.
