Help me build my first DAW

My first DAW should be arriving any day now:
Athlon XP2100
Epox EP-8KHA+ mobo (VIA KT266)
512Mb DDR RAM
2 Seagate barracuda HD's (1 system, 1 audio)

I will be running windows 98SE & using the Roland Studio Pack with Cubase.

I have never put a computer together before (but I will have some good help). Is there anything I should know specific to building DAW's, any settings that need tweaking for optimal audio performance, or any other words of wisdom you can give me? How about overclocking-should I attempt it?
 
>How about overclocking-should I attempt it?

No.

One, that's not a very overclockable CPU at all.

Two, it's already going to sound like a jet engine.

Have fun!
