Nice build! I haven't messed around with Slot 1 in ages so I've got an MSI MS-6119 with a Pentium 3 of some kind and apparently 128mb of DDR2 ram (lol) on the way, for £16. I'm not sure if I will put my Voodoo 3 2000 pci or TnT2 Pro in there... But I am thinking of putting a slow p2 in there and using it for DOS gaming.

MS-6119 sounds like one of the solid BX boards MSI made. Just make sure you recap it, as the Chhsi caps are abysmal in quality.

For DOS, depends. If all you want to play is 2D DOS games (and Doom), probably a ATI Rage IIC AGP will do.

I like those Yamaha XG YMF-7x4 sound cards. A good inexpensive way to get MIDI playback and good sound too.

Haha, I remember that game. It's on the CD image I uploaded to the archive years ago.
