Hi, this does make things harder.  Because windows 9x does not allow you =
to
look at the task manager.  So lets do this run ms config.  Go to =
selective
startup.  Mark every check box except for load startup group options.  =
Now
go to the startup group tab and mark the option for jaws.  Reboot.  Let =
us
know if you get better respons.  Then we will ask you for a list of =
things
loaded at start up and we will start putting them back tell we find the
nasty little problem.  This is much easier working with windows xp. =20
