Helleo Faythe, No I did not have the resource meter installed. Did a search on it and had to install it with Control Panel/Add Remove Programs/Windows Setup. I never used it before because it I don't know what to do with it. It's there now on my taskbar. sylvia. I have windows ME, and to get find system resources go to start> programs>accessories>systemtools>resource meter... I think if you click on it it will put it in your system tray & you can watch what programs , ect that will make your resources drop. Hope that helps. Faythe There is, in WinMe. I don't have it in my mind where to access it!! I have Me and it's not accessible from where MJH suggests below. Somebody will help.
