thedaver Thanks for so much of your time. Dick PS computer1 has 256mg mem/ 200gig hd /xp2100 AMD cpu/ Bios is Award date june 2003. Computer2 has 256mg ran /120gig hd AMD xp2100 / Bios just flashed with Award V6.oopg also 2003

thedaver I run win 98se. I have learned it pretty well to fix any problems but the problems keep comming. Therefore, I want to upgrade. But to who? XP? It will solve the 132 barrier BUT is all the learning of another MS DOS (which is probably just as bad as win98) a wise move? I am thinking...

Annihilannic Thanks To be sure I understand. win98 and xp still have 640 base memory barrier and use the emm to page in and out, Right? win98 has a 132 gig drive max but xp with sp1 does do larger hard drives, Right? But I understand that you say linux akready does this right now? Dick

I would like to know: Does linux break the 640 memory barrier? Does linux support hard drives greater than 132 gig? (Win98 barrier) Dick

shycookies Maybe another vga card with its driver could work better? Maybe your current vga card card is going bad or is a very low end card. Dick

With your help I have solved my problem. The new 1gig memory I installed may be too fast for my MB, I replaced it with the old 256mg strip and the problem went away. Strange though, the 1gig worked for 6mo no problem. Maybe it is not the higher speed but it just went bad. I emailed ultra...

jleites I don't leave any computers on for any unattended extended length of time. Not since I turned on my computer went to have breakfast and smelt a very acrid smell. I went back into my living room, where I keep one computer, and black smoke was pouring out of it. By itself, a floppy...

Rick998 I have at least 2 gig hd space avail on each drv. Is there a seperate limitation on a temp folder? Dick PS your redirect idea is neat!

kenny45 You need to start a new thread. But let me say that perhaps if you uninstall the old win then reinstall, it might take the key. Dick

cdogg Thanks I will let you know if it works. As far as the register repair; I have Norton's and System Mechanic 6 I have used both still have the problem. Dick

cdogg The reason is that I pulled the 17gig to work on another drive and could not check specs. 17 gig has 2 and a half gig free internet file folder 8324 mb virtual - I have 'let win manage...' Thanks again Dick

cdogg No Yes one partition Error comes when I click on ANY icon Thanks Dick

Rick998 So am I. But I hope someone will hit on an answer. Yes, win98se Remember, only the 17gig has this 'not enough memory. When swapped out the others work fine in the same computer. So it has to be a drive problem or a softwarw problem. And I reinstalled win98se. Dick

Rick998 500 MG RAM HD 17GIG ALL DRIVES (I SWIPE THEM IN AND OUT) NO PROBLEM 40/80/120/200/25 THANKS DICK

Rick998 I deleted contents of temp folder but I still get 'not enough memory delete some programs' (no programs are open) This is a real problem Dick
