Bill, I followed your instructions however the dropouts do continue. The playback was a hair better it ran maybe a few seconds more without dropping out. Anything else? do appreciate the help. I sure do enjoy this software. ----- Original Message ----- From: William R.

I just upgraded to CTW 5.2 and jaws 7.0. I am getting a poor response lots of dropping out and slow performance when I open a project and try to do some work. Prior to the upgrade the software performed much better an occasional dropout but nothing like this. I would greatly appreciate any ideas, I'm a novice so I'm pretty lost. Almost forgot and this might be the most important piece, I also upgraded the pc's memory to 1.3 gig. I'm not having any problems in Outlook or any other programs. Thanks Tom
