Mark, Haven't had any resource limitation problems since I upgraded from w98se to win2000. Very stable IMHO but I was a little nervous running it for the last 4 months w/o the help of a utility like Norton SystemWorks. Sue

Mark and All From an email I received today. >>>090400 HOW TO FIX SOFTWARE BUGS, BEFORE TROUBLE STRIKES Getting information about bugs and fixes, BEFORE you install a new software program, might save you from problems such as lost data or a "frozen" PC. It is often possible to find out what kind of problems you might have with the program - and which of these bugs can be fixed before they cause you any trouble. Here are a few ideas on where to look for bug reports and fixes: * Visit the software maker's Web site. Patches or free upgrades might be available there. * Browse a bug-reporting Web site, such as BugNet (www.bugnet.com) or Woody's Office Portal (www.wopr.com). * Look through computer magazines such as PC World, which features a monthly Bugs and Fixes column. * Check out newsgroups and discussion lists that cover the type of software in questions. You can find these through the major search engines. * Always check the README file (usually named readme.txt) before you install the software. Taking a little time to fix a problem, before it affects you, will help keep your computer running smoothly and your valuable data secure.
