RE:"Probably will get a new P4 PC in the 1st quarter next year. As the white box repair guy said, "you have some software issues"." There is a Gateway store right there in Countryside. Stop in and give the cow a break...he needs it... Jim

John - Re: "Works great. Surprising how doubling your memory will improve performance, for a easy ~$15 from Crucial (not counting the ~$50 I had to pay the white box place after I screwed up)." All in all, I think you got away lucky ! When I built my new machine - for Windows 2000 - I splurged on 128 Meg of DRAM (about 1 year ago). When I kept hearing the hard disk spinning, I upgraded to 256 Meg - problem solved - speed went up nicely !. I then doubled that to 512 Meg for "safekeeping" ! As a friend of mine and I used to say (the infamous tcmay) Memory is Free ! Paul
