OK, so you will use it for listening to music, videos + server tasks. Looks fine to me. What server tasks are we talking about? Linux would also be my preferred choice for such kind of system. It will run faster and there is full HTPC support + emulators.

Well the main role of this new server is to hold up alot of Media, Games, Appz etc. And then the playback on the TV, Emulation Play, Music player comes into use. Though I have no experience with Linux at all but if it can do all of those things (and more ) then I would certainly try that instead of a Windows OS
LOL, that's a perfect job for MythTV (Linux frontend). No It's not hard. If you like you could start the hard way with Gentoo. This way you will learn a lot of stuff and have a very easy maintained system. Or you could go the simple way with Ubuntu.
Downloading it now... Though Razor I might need your help on this I noticed that Gentoo have alot of installer for many different PC setups...
What kind of installer do I need for the server?
X86 off course. And you need the universal livecd. However I'm not an expert on this. I just followed the manual myself and learned a bit more by reading the forums. Asking in the forums would be best. More "experts" there.
Ok... Though gotta get my PSU before I download the hole thing... My paycheck got delayed :/ and that means im not going to order the PSU until next month
