    sure. You might want more ram and a larger hard drive (depending upon how much space you have on it).

    If I were going to prioritize it, I would want more ram first.

    I run on:
    AMD 900mhz
    256 SD Ram
    80Gb + 40GB HDD

    ...and I totally concur with Yuedana in that more RAM would be good & you'll definitely want to add to HDD space (at some point).

    Thanks,yuedana and herbsman.Right now,I have 32.1 GB of free HD space.I intend to delete all DVD's from my PC once I've copied them.Do you still think I may need more RAM & HD space?

    hard drive space is fine. Ram will give you a performance boost. It is hard to predict how long it will take you to do the rip, compress and burn

    DVD2One takes sometimes 30 mins or so because I only have 900mhz CPU & 256k SD Ram.
    Extra RAM would really help out & its cheap as chips anyway if buying SD (single data) RAM.
