then go to system tools and do a disk clean up

I suffer from paranoid amnesia. I can't remember who I don't trust.
Hi Andy funny you should mention that. I placed a stick of RAM in last year and these problems only appeared since then. I might remove it, clean the PC up with the can of air and see how I get on.AndyG wrote:Sounds rather like the problems I was experiencing a few weeks back.

Eddie, removing RAM actually cures a lot of probs. I had a recurring BSOD problem in XP only a few weeks ago which was cured by removing a stick of RAM. While you're at it:
- Give the PC a clean, lots of dust doesnt help, gets in the way of connections or may even be conducting!
- Check your RAM is correctly configured and in the correct banks (its ok refer to mobo manual, they're not just for newbies )
- Also check to see if it has recommendations about not mixing different manufacturers or speeds of RAM
- The day mine crashed was an especially hot day, I ran it for the rest of the evening with the case open and it was much more stable
Also years ago a friend had a highly unstable computer. He worked in a computer shop and thus considered his knowledge to be pretty good. He tried everything to fix it and had got nowhere. I removed one memory module and bingo, all worked fine

Cheers Toby,
The RAM i inserted was a mirror copy of the current stick giving me 1Gig. TBH the PC was'nt noticibly any better with it in, and FS9 did'nt really give me any improvements. I might go back to 512 for a bit and see if thats the prob.

I went from 512MB to 768 by inserting the 256MB from my previous PC, possibly a dubious idea. I also assumed that bank 1 was the first bank (when actually its bank 3 - go figure :think: ) so two problems straight off. Now up to 1GB and not really a lot of difference. Still get memory warnings occasionally when doing photo manipulations
