Hi Andrew - thanks for the offer, I?ll go the Belarc route for the 
key, and come back to you if that?s ok if I hit a snag.

Bellarc adviser reports the following, and I wondered if it looks ok, 
I was confused by the ?2 installed? for 3.07 gigahertz Intel Pentium 
4 (2 installed)

And the primary cache seems very small, or is that normal?

Processor a
  
Main Circuit Board b
3.07 gigahertz Intel Pentium 4 (2 installed)
8 kilobyte primary memory cache
512 kilobyte secondary memory cache
  
Board: RS300-SB200
Bus Clock: 133 megahertz
BIOS: Phoenix Technologies, LTD 6.00 PG 11/11/2003

Andy
