Order to install items on a new system

[GoingUp]

I just got my NF7 and Barton. I also have a gig of PC3200 DDR (2x512) . What order should I install everything in the OS? I know sometimes you need to install items in a certain order.

Windows XP, Service Packs, mobo drivers, direct x, vid card drivers...

Whats the proper order for everything?

Your order is perfect as listed.

Good God! Where the hell is the anti-virus software?! Me thinks that should come either before or after the service packs.
