You make the call

you might have a cable connected wrong somewhere and it is overheating, causing it to smoke...I had this happen...not fun.

Linux questions/need advice :)

you might want to just partition the drive and install linux that way. I think the version where you install linux inside windows in called Winlinux 2000 or something like that, I believe that mandrake has a distribution of that, but I've heard it's a little sluggish compared to other installs...

Plan on buying XP?

I think so...probably see how the product activation works out for everyone first, but I like it so far, and don't see a reason not to at least try it.

Burning an ISO image

You should just be able to double click on the .iso image and it should let you do that...but you should have an option when you open Nero to burn from an .iso image.

Difference between geforce2 gts , pro & ultra

With good cooling you should be able to overclock it almost to the Ultra levels...even though you're going to be getting good results with the Pro at defaults. I believe the only difference speed wise is the Pro is (200/400) and the Ultra is (250/460).

If you're having a problem with your video card overheating, maybe sticking a bigger cooler like a Blue Orb or a SS7 cooler on the GPU and then some ram sinks on the RAM and you'll probably find that you'r card is much cooler and able to overclock!

Crucial Memory

I've never had a problem getting the un-buffered memory to run at cas 2, but I've heard that the registered stuff is a little tougher sometimes...

What is the best 760 chipset DDR Motherboard

You'll probably want to join the great majority of people here and buy an Epox 8K7A, seems to be a pretty good motherboard, and not a horrible price on it either.

Which printer: Lexmark Z22 ($119) or Z33 ($142)?

I just bought the Z43 from newegg for 94.00 and love it! It's pretty fast and the print quality is great for a sub $100 printer. It prints at 2400x1200dpi max and is speced at 12ppm in B&W and 6.5 in color. I would go for that if I were you.
