Elizabeth, re: " ... Windows locking up ..." My advice is to find a place about 4 stories up from which to drop the beast. Any lower and it won't smash properly. Any higher and you might not hear the delightful crunching sounds as your PC shatters on the concrete... Or ... perform the following, in this order, until the problem is resolved: 1) Upgrade to Windows 98, Windows 4.x or Windows 2000. 2) Download every available Microsoft update. 3) Download the latest drivers for your video card. 4) Reinstall Windows starting with a boot diskette. 5) Download the latest BIOS update for your motherboard. If that doesn't work, download StartupCop from www.zd.net and disable infrequently used start-up functions (you might try this one first!) And if all that doesn't fix the problem, write me privately. Since you are the resident Panda keeper, a fellow SNDK shareholder, and a genuinely nice human being, I'm only too glad to be of service. Craig
