oops typo... ..it's mb... I use my system all the time..I am list owner on a
yahoo group and a large website... I use intensive graphics, as I am a
stationery creator or a creator of anything graphical in nature...not
everyone's cup of tea.. but it's what I do..
I run psp9 Nortons System Works. not the antiviurs! I hate nortons
antivirus
...I have found over the years that one either loves NAV or
hates it.. bearshare..
incredimail.. AVG, Adaware, Spybot, Zone alarm.
Diskeeper Lite, yahoo messenger.. and jp power tools, also cleanup, There
are also other programs on my computer which I use from time to time..
I have over a gig of ram.. 2.2 G CPU Type AMD Athlon XP-A, 2083 MHz (6.25 x
333) 2800+ and I just did read the article.. isn't 2.5 times the size of
ram excessive? thanks Rainy
ps. my biggest problem seems to be resources.. I don't think there is a
connection between resources and ram.. I have heard that it's the number of
programs running in the background.. I have been to msconfig and taken the
check mark out of items I don't think I need.. but still my computer runs
sluggish from time to time..
