Installed Windows 7 on my home-built PC

I had this home-built PC sitting around, unused. It was running XP.

I had taken its monitor, and used it for my dual monitor setup on my iMac 24"

I decided to dust off the PC, and hook it up to the VGA connection on my 22" LCD TV. I moved the computer cart so it was within reach of the TV.

I installed Windows 7 on that computer, without any problems at all.

The only gripe right now is that the monitor is about 5' away from the PC cart. I can move the cart closer, but that doesn't leave much room.

I have a couple ideas in mind that would take time and or money.

I might just move the 22" LCD TV over to my computer desk and use it in a dual monitor setup with the iMac.

That would require a converter to go from (Mini) DVI to VGA. If that would work.

I'd also want to totally rearrange my computer desk. And I'd probably better put the back on the desk so it's not so wobbly.

Or I could put the TV on the smaller computer cart that handles the home-built PC.

I'd probably want to move the Digital cable box over to the computer cart.

I'd see if there was room on the bottom shelf for the digital cable box. Or I could improvise a "monitor stand" large enough to stash the cable box underneath.

Oh, in the meantime, Windows 7 threw me a surprise. It saw that I had two internal hard drives, and gave me a choice of where to install.

Now it appears I have a dual-boot system. I can boot to either XP or Windows 7!
