Thanks, Dave. BTW, you must be upgrading from a pretty slow processor for there to be such a large performance improvement.

Yes I did upgrade from a single AMD athlon 32bit processor to a HP Mini-tower with a 6800B AMD phenom x3 with at least 1.87 GBs of memory running at 2.31ghz but it is a great system except for a little niggle that means that sometimes it won't shut down but I think that I have the problem licked.
