Dell is notorious for loading up a bunch of extraneous stuff. In the Start
menu select Run and type in msconfig. This is a multi tab screen I believe
it is the last tab which tells you which programs its loading up. I suggest
that you uncheck virtually everything but jaws and your virus protection.
Good luck
Jeff

If it's a video problem though I'm surprised I haven't had the problem
before.
