Want to know if/what other cables I need?

Here's my new system that is in the mail ::

Corsair Value Select (Dual Pack) 184 Pin 512MBx2 DDR PC-3200 ($150)
AMD Athlon64 Socket 939 3200+ ($200)
DVD/CD Burner/Reader ($65)
DVD/CD-Rom Reader ($27)
Seagate 200GB SATA drive 7200RPM ($128)
Antec Sonata ($100)
Chaintech 7.1 Sound Card ($25)
Floppy Drive ($10)
Logitech X-5305 Black Speakers($65)
ATI Radeon X800 XT ($490)
Viewsonic G90FB 19" CRT Monitor ($215)
MSI Neo2 Platnium with nForce3 ULTRA ($138)
Logitech Ultra X Keyboard($34)
Logitech MX510 ($35)
(ignore the price tags)

I just want to know what other cables I need? I'll probably have to buy a power strip for the system; the 5.1 system has all the cables and can connect to the sound card, the monitor has all the cables; the video card is Bulk OEM, but I'm almost sure it still comes with the cables that it needs. The HD, floppy, and optical drives didn't come with any cables; however, the motherboard came with (I believe) one floppy cable, some power cables, D-Bracket, 2 sata cables, and I think only one cable for optical drives. What other cables should I need?

Ditto. FYI Elemennop, people have had problems with the MSI in the area of front-USB wiring. If you intend to use front USB, compare your case's front-USB cable to the one that MSI supplies for extra rear USB ports. If the case has wires in holes where the MSI cable does not, take the wires out of the holes in those positions.

Also, make sure to not catch worms during Windows installation (or afterwards, of course).
