If you have to spend it today I would go hard drive.  and video card you get today wil be out dated very shortly.  At least with 100 bucks.  You should be able to find about 200Gb drive for that.  Or you can look into more ram for the existing machine.  That would boost performance.  Vista will use up to 4GB,
