steve Would system resources fit into the above situation Probably not. Norton has monitors that would tell you what percentage resources you are using but I don't remember the exact way to access that part of the program. Look in Norton help under resources and you should be able to find out how. If you have an unusual amount of programs running in the background you could be gobbling up too many resources before you really try to do anything. You can try booting into safe mode and running defrag and scandisk from there. This keeps all but essential drivers from loading and causing interference. This may eliminate the disk writes. Here's a couple of links telling you about the programs you have running and whether they are needed or not for functionality. www2.whidbey.net pacs-portal.co.uk If you find any you don't need it's best to find a setting within the program (under options, preferences or in your start menu startup folder) that will disable the offending application from loading at the start. If not there you can disable some of them via unchecking them in your System Configuration Utility. pacs-portal.co.uk tc
