Cocoa2424 I would repost this problem of yours, in the Windows 98 /95 forum,,,,, (or if there is an IE forum). You might want to combine the information that you have supplied in both posts, into one post, and give that a shot. I would really like to know how to fix that. It is...

The difference in price isn't that much, say $20 - $30 to go from a 5400 RPM to a 7200 RPM. ** The difference is HUGE, in overall system performance if you want a high-performance computer, ESPCCIALLY in todays games (the high end 2001 / 2002 games), and the upcoming games. I would...
