Besides stopping programs from starting when windows starts is there a way to allow for more system resources to be available during normal computer operation? Would increased CPU speed help. Right now running PIII 1ghz 384mb ram and getting 55% resources free during the middle of the day of computer usage.

  What version of stinking Windows are you running? If it’s 95 or 98, you can adjust the memory settings in the config.sys file…if you’re using Me, get used to the problem…I haven’t found any way to tell Me to allot memory differently…yet…hope this helps a little
