Hi, I ran memtest86 from a floopy and it is reporting high numbers of memory test failures. I ran the same program on a stable machine and that has shown no memory errors. I am going to see if I have some spare, suitable memory I can swap, and maybe invest in some new memory - in the hope the memory is the problem and I am not throwing good money after bad Thanks, Clive
