Gotta be more than 4 gig eh??

Yep, 8G I believe. Was talking about the mem on your xp machine.. unless it's the new one that has this problem???

Looks to be 12800 DDR3...

On the XP , I installed 4 gigs years ago....

Gotcha.. ok, so the memory test is I THINK windows 7 and vista / above. XP does not have one, although I coulda sworn..

If you have a USB drive handy, you can go here and download memtest86 - fairly decent memory tester. Page has links to the free version download, plus online help.

MS is still pushing win10 but they probably went sbout it all wrong. I think the latest firgures show win 10 with 23% share and win 7 with 47% share. Now that they want to charge for it, I'll bet the adoption rate drastically drops.

The howling is all about their new webmail now. Unfortunately, Steve Ballmer is starting to look a lot better than he might have been and the world has become fed up with itself as much as all of these changes.

Double whammy.

Dude ... it's dying and unpredictable. Let it go man ... let it go and put it out of it's misery.

Actually, don't turn it off again and get at those templates and whatever else you want to grab off of it while it's still breathing.
A USB thumb drive should do.

Ok, that's funny shit guys.....I know Tony, I am not stopping the integration of the Win 7 machine. I was idly messing with the XP and decided to click something I hadn't before, totally irresistible, considering the circumstances...it only appears unstable during boot up, when Windows is going it seem fine. Quite a difference in loading pages or streaming content......no buffering a linked video!!!! WOW!!!!

Time to take that old XP machine up to Rob's target range and use some of his 375HH on
it for target practice. Old digital is just old digital.

I'm loyal to a fault Joe......but yeah, I'm getting the Win 7 ready. The only reason I tried the XP again is so I could finish my JIB's I fell behind on while fishing...
