ok so heres my situation. without going into frivalous detail me and my girl of 6 years just split and she took our pc with her. i have a dell poweredge 840 with 4 75 gig sas drives in it. i have win server 03,winxp pro, and/or vista home on disk for installation and the pc is running:

Phoenix ROM BIOS Plus version 1.10 A05
one 2.66 GHz fual core processor, processor BUS 1066 MHz,L2 cache 4MB

Broadcom NetXtreme Ethernet Boot Agent v.8.3.9

PowerEdge Expandable RAID Controller BIOS
HA-0 (BUS 2 DEV14) PERC 5/i adapter
FW package: 5.2.1-0066

IPMI Server Management Configuration Utility 1.5

Baseboard Management Controller Revision 1.75
Primary Backplane Firmware Revision 1.05

Broadcom Basecode PXE-2.1 v1.0.4
Broadcom UNDI PXE-2.1 v8.3.1

That being said, i can build a computer and all the inards and can do some seriious tweaking with any version of windows but dont have the first damn clue when it comes to bios settings and/or RAID setup.

I want to say screw a server and just somehow transform this hunk of components into a desktop pc. Is there anyone out there with the expertise and time to help me get back to Wckediden?

(every single one of my posts for the last week including this one have been via my pro. which is also why it took me from 11pm to approx 6:45am to hunt down that working version of coreplayer 1.3.0 for this site)

PLEASE HELP ME!!!!
