Terry, THANK YOU for your response. I discovered that I had a bad RAM stick in that box. After replacing the RAM I decided to install Ubuntu 8.04 as of yesterday. That installation and subsequent updates went flawlessly. I'll stick with 8 for awhile to familiarize myself with the Linux enviornment. I'm at a point where I can't stand Microsoft any longer. (I've been using its "products" since Windows 3.0 so I've lived through countless crashes and frustration.) PEACE!
