Well being I've not put it in service, and my old set is what I'm still using also I can re-install XP even after I blow it away. I'm likely going to see how 98 runs on the new set. ---- It seems to me XP is checking the program I want to run then looking at it's resources to see if it can do it..before it even gets started. ---- All in all disk R/W is the big speed limit, and with 98 I at least know how to limit the disk R/W. If I can set the Disk Swap size on XP to not change I'll give it a try, but so far I don't know how to do that. Jim
