Subject: Re: Adding a Second Hard Disk
It looks like you read my mind and addressed the other concern that
came up earlier today when I was told that there is a limited number
of times that one can re-install XP before being required to re-
activate. I haven't kept count, but I re-installed XP 4 times in the
last 10 days or so, and my total re-installs during the last three
years is probably up to 6 or 7!
Thanks for the info on backing up those two files to floppies. I
should be re-installing either today or tomorrow, and will report
back with the results. If I can get back online, of course! Paul

Hi Sean,
OLD FLOPPIES...can 1998 be considered old..??...Not in my book...I have

from film cameras..that only cost a few paultry dollars..compared to what
we spend to day...it's unbelievable ...but as long as we keep buying

I spent over 3,000.00 on a new XP Dell 4600 Computer specially customized

me...makes me start over !!!
I detest it all...I'm fed up with trying to keep up and constatntly losing

If they are old floppies,containing old programs, chances are those
programs won't work in XP.

Subject: Re: Adding a Second Hard Disk
The issue of inadequate diskspace for XP of course still remains. Whatever
will you do with all your Windows updates, Documents and Settings, personal
files like emails, and other parts of programs you are to install (you know
that they will add files to your system drive and you have no control over
that).
You may also want to relocate your paging file to the bigger and faster
drive.

Subject: Re: If they are old floppies
I understand where you are coming from, Viv. Regarding your old floppies,
the issue is not their age but their contents. Since you do not know what's
in them and one of them already caused your computer to go bad, I was just
suggesting that you do not try to open them since doing so might damage
your system which may be a much bigger grief than erasing and formatting
those floppies.

Thank you, Rich, for the Google suggestions, and thank you, Sparky, for
helping me privately. I guess switching from Win98 to WinXP (along with
all the other upgrades/updates required) plus trying to network a laptop
and a desktop has just been somewhat overwhelming, and I just couldn't find=
the info I needed and could understand. I think maybe I'm "seeing the
light at the end of the tunnel" now, so I'm keeping at it. :)

Subject: Re: New Memory Stumped
Ok did some final testing here. Returned the first memory. Confirmed
with Dell about the processor. It is running at 7.5 x 133. The first
memory memory we tried as you recall had a problem giving registry
errors when installed with the original memory. When installed alone
windows would not boot.
Now the new chip I purchased will not run at all when installed alone
I just get muitipal bios beeps. If installed with the original memory
the computer works fine but the second chip is not recognized.
Dell also confirmed that there would be no issues if the chips did
have different density.
I am now lost. I may just have to leave my friend with 128mb or send
him to a shop that will just put chips in until we find one that will
work.

I had some of those old motherboards that became quite picky about ram when

A couple years ago, I ran into some memory put out by Kingston. It was

that took PC100. (BTW, the real boob at OfficeMax was me for believing what

Another thing may be differing CAS latency. Memory with a latency of 2 is
faster than memory with a latency of 3. In a system, when multiple memory
modules are installed, the motherboard usually times memory access using
the parameters contained in the SPD chip on the first module, the module in
the No.1 DIMM slot. If that module has a latency of 2 and the second one a
latency of 3, the system will be trying to access the second module faster
than it can handle things. So try swapping the modules around, putting the
newer one in the first slot and the original in the second slot.
If the 128MB memory was the original from Dell, then either the 128 or
256MB sticks from Crucial will work. 256 part #'s are CT 268933/34 ($67);

Before installing the Java version found in the link suggested by Murray, I
would suggest to you to go first to your Add/Remove Programs in Control
Panel and remove all the other Java versions that you have there. Then
install the new version. The reason for that is the older Java software are
vulnerable to several exploits.
Will agree with you there Sean. I did remove them post install but better
to do before.
Unfortunately, I forgot the link where I downloaded the program from.
When I d/l I prepare a separate folder named with the program and its
version # and then after receiving the d/l, I drag the link into the folder
and after the install is done, I then drag that folder into My Installed
Folder and all of this is in My Downloads in My Documents. Also, sometimes
if you open a program, in the Help>about, there is a website link (not
always though)
