No good Loren. You need from 80% to 85% system resources available. Check this
immediately after boot up. If you only have an average of 56% you are going to
run out Loren. So some softwre you are loading on boot up, and maybe some you
forgot you are loading on boot up, need to be thought over, and the ones you do
not have to have, removed from boot up. You can always load as needed.	
	
I load and unload into memory 'as needed', and never run out of system
resources. it is not diffficult to write a routine to load into the HmA, if you
need assistance, I can do it for you.

Duane,

I do some harddrive data mods using regedit so know to do that but not 
working with RAM. I usually have aboyr 56% resources available average. 
Thanks!
