    This is all the info I can fine on this computer.
    What can I do to improve performance??
    I know it can be tweaked but I really dont know how.
    It seems to me that the memory usage is too high, but I dont know if it is normal or not.
    Any advice??

    @ Mastertech
    Thanks
    I am on dial up and some of the files are huge.
    But I am pluggung away at it.
    I will let you know .
    As of now I have 9 Items that will not install no matter what i do.
    See pic below.
    When I re-read my post I found a line missing.
    It read " system resources used 53-55 %."

    @ Wookie
    Thanks
    I defrag every week.
    In the msconfig I have nothing checked.
    Might be a problem there.
    I will look into it.

    Again Thank You both .

    BlackViper has some good tips also. And CachemanXP is a good memory manager with a process manager screen for instant lower memory usage and kill process ability. Of course implement all of MT's suggestions -- he's a whiz.

    @ Mastertech.
    I ran the scanners and found " badtrans- b "
    Took care of it.
    Tried to download the updates 1 by 1 and wound up losing my internet connection. And the updates still would not install.I went to their help forum and searched for an answer and they said to try over and over again.
    I tried about 9 times and gave up.
    With the way things are going I will post the results of the reformat and re installiation in a day or two.
    Anywho thanx for your help.
    I have nothing on this main drive I cant lose so I am going to reformat and bite the bone.
    Seems the easiest way to solve the problem.
