    If you care about the looks of it you might want a couple of these.

    Coolermaster aluminum drive bezels
    They fit most drives and they don't cost very much, fitted one on mine and it looks quite nice.
    they also come in black.
    yeah PCWorld had them in stock too, about £8 they were, I've got two old CD drives here and tried getting the fronts off of both of them, seems near impossible?

    hows your new card working btw?

    Could always go down to your local Dairy Queen or Baskin Robin's and have one of those cake decals made of Gillian Anderson. It might work, and if not, you could just, eat it.

    Of course there is.
    Post a pic of Dana that you consider suitable.

    that's a bit like the case i was aiming for, if i wasn't too impatient

    maybe it's possible to do some hologram effect on the brushed aluminium or whatever it's called but i'm guessing it's expensive.

    and although she's a pretty lady a case with her face on would look a bit...




    for some reason i feel the need to photoshop

    arc. get me a pic of the side and that green stripey catsuit picture

    Once you open the drawer, the front of the drawer should come off quite easily (usually just slides upwards), then you can remove the front panel. As you say, damn near impossible with the drawer closed though.

    ok seriously....what were you thinking? Not to be mean...but starting to buy stuff and keep buying stuff over a period of time is a horrible idea because prices will go down..you prob could get an a64 system right now for the price of the parts for that one
    [SIZE=1]AMD 4200 X2 @ 2.65Ghz, ASRock 939-VSTA
    1.75GB PC3200, 2 X 160GB Seagate w/ 8MB Buffer

    It's a great idea actually, I did it and it worked out to my advantage...
    Just remember to leave the most expensive gear to buy last, as they will have more of a chance to drop in price... :p

    It works very well, though I managed to get the overclock on the identical card I helped my brother buy order a bit higher.

    Prolly 'cos his airflow, which I also helped him sort out , is better.

    You don't need to get the old fronts off to mount those aluminum fronts on.

    Observe.

    Actually, this one is better.


    It might seem like it would look bad or something fitting them like that, but it looks really good once they are on, and it isn't flimsy or anything.
