Other option would be to buy canned version from ast, alr, compaq etc. Any strong reccomendations for : 1) motherboard companys. 2)build your own pc at home books(liked Minasi's maintance book) 3) peripheral suppliers (wires,screws,power supplies,cabinets) 4)forum where these issues are routinely discussed 5)ways to contact mobo companys for literature updates upgrades.
