Changing some stuff...what do you think?

My box is working just fine right now, but I think it's time to update a few things:

Will change 512 PC2100 memory for 1GB PC3200 memory.
Will change CPU from AMD Athlon XP 2000+ to probably Mobile Barton 2600 (but this I haven't decided yet).
Will change video card from GeFoce 4ti 4200 to probably Radeon 9600 Pro (again, I'm looking at this).
Will add an extra 160GB drive (or bigger if I can find it cheaper).

So...my question (aside from 'what do you think of these upgrades' is...will windows ALLOW me to do these changes, or will it require me to wipe out and start anew?
 
Should be fine but make sure to run Driver cleaner before you do the video upgrade and look up the proper instructions before you do it.
 
Ditto, but think about the 9800pro instead. You can get a newegg refurb for $175 right now. I got one. It was bad, and I got a replacement, and it was fine.
