Upgrading PC for Cubase 3.7r2

Hey guys. I have Cubase VST 3.7r2. I know I skipped 5.0 and SX, but I cant afford SX right now. Besides, I know 3.7 inside and out and really dont want to learn something new.

I am using a PC in this configuration:

500 MHZ PIII
512 MB SDRAM
Win 98
4.5 GB HD for apps
30 GB HD for audio files

I called Steingberg this question and they could answer me cause they said they dont support 3.7 anymore.

I want to build this configuration for Cubase 3.7r2

2.0 GHZ AMD XP
1.0 GB DDR RAM
Win 2000
13 GB HD for apps
60 GB HD for audio files

My question is this:

Will I have any problem with that configuration? What I mean is will there be any reason that 3.7 will not respond with the 2 GHZ processor (math computational problems) or the RAM? I read the specs on the box and it says 166MHZ or faster, 32 MB ram or more.

I just want to be sure that an old program like that will work on such a modern system. I already have the motherboard, hard drives case, a 1.1 AMD Duron (want to upgrade to a 2.0), I need to get the 1 GB RAM, swap over my M-audio audio card. Put in a Matron P-750 3 RGB video out card for 3 monitors. One monitor for Cubase, one for Soundiver, and one for misc.

Will 3.7 even work on Windows 2000?

I know some of yall will say that I should build the computer and just hold out for SX. But I had 5.0 on a partition, and it never read my 3.7 .ALL files correctly. So I'm just gonna stick with what I know.

Thanks in advance.

Mike
