Go and download a little free program called Balarc Advisor.

It will answer all your questions about your computer. --- Ben Moore
What an excellent link that is!!! (three exclamation marks). Anyone
interested should know there is no space between "free" and "download"
(there's a bottom dash there). At first I thought the "setup file" that
downloaded wasn't doing its job, not realizing that it's not a setup file,
but rather a link that opens a browser with all the computer's information
on it --- even has my name (showing it got right into the Registry). ---

What's your CPU speed Harold? Do you have your video drivers installed? If
you're running generic video card drivers your resources can be lower than
they should. You could also have a resources leak. You can find a lot on
that in search. --- Clint
RESPONSE:
1. Using Find on the resulting page, neither "CPU" ("central processing
unit" or any one of those three words) nor "speed" appears on the page.
2. Using Find, the only section where the word, "driver" appears is listed
under "Display" as follows:
Intel(R) 810e Chipset Graphics Driver (DC133 FSB133) PV 2.1 [Display
adapter]
HP D5259A [Monitor] (15.7"vis, February 2000)
However, this dialogue with you guys has encouraged me to really look into
those computer information programs, and using DirectX, and Graphics
Diagnostics Utility (by Intel), I find tons of drivers, and some of them
must be "generic video card drivers." If you need the list, I can easily
send it to you.
And how would I know if I have a resources leak? We'll let it all pass; I
suppose that with AVG and ZoneAlarm in the Startup, opening with 74%
resources free is par for the course . Harold
