Your right!
Kurch and Jugstah,
I upgraded quite a while ago to Windows XP home and it started to go down hill then and their. Recently I added the Kodak program that go with the new camera and printing dock. Well considering all the megs needed on RAM for XP and the fact that the Kodak program starts and loads completely every startup that was causing my desktop to not load. You know all I got to look at was the Windows XP logo. Our resident computor professional at work and he gets paid to be one told me I had some kind of major failure in my XP program and I may havce to reformat and load up a new program, but before doing this he suggested I load the original program again. That origianl program was ME, which I loaded onot the same partition as the XP update. BOOM! Nothing work after that. Wee I ofrced the issue by attempting to load a full XP professional program, which I had to do because I could not gain access to DOS to reformat everything was so scewed up. But my theory worked. Before I was able to load the full version of XP prfessional I was prompted to dump and reformat, which I did. Guess what though, which I bet you both have figured out. All I really needed was a RAM expansion and nothing else. XP needs 80 megs just to open, and that combined with the Kodak program wich I could not shut down was my problem. So today I went to 4allMemory.com and utilized their program that survey my machine and ordered up two 256's to replace my meager two 64's. With only 128 megs currently I was crippled with either the windows update to the original ME program or the beautiful XP prof. that I loaded, which works better but will work even moreso in a few days. Thanks for the reply guys.
