Hi Erin,
              Remember what I said about the restrictions on RootsChat.
 Make sure that it is a Jpeg file. If not go to file, use save as...
and select Jpeg format and save.  I would give it a different file name.

Eager to see comments on the list of Start Up items as I have 53 processes running and haven't a clue what they are all for.

I recently contacted Dell about a virtual memory message I kept getting and after a few suggestions, I backed up everything I wanted to keep and then wound it all back to the start again from scratch.  It has solved the problem but as the computer was only about eight months old I don't expect this should have happened.  One good point about a Dell computer is that it is easy to reformat, everything is pre-loaded, no discs needed except your software.

I'd like to keep an eye on what's needed or not but am wary of cancelling anything in case I do it to something that stops it booting up.

Does anybody else have any opinion on Michael's suggestions above?

'Startup Inspector'.

'Safe XP'.

Hi Erin

If you want you can post this list of processes to this forum and I'm sure people here or on another forum can advise you whether they need to running or not.

Hi Erin,
              You've got it in tif. You could have also done it in one.
  You should have elongated the task manager until you could see all the processes
and then captured.
                  Press crtl,alt,delete. Put the cursor on bottom right hand corner of
task manager. ( you should see a shaded triangle there) Keeping the mouse
button depressed drag the pointer diagonally downwards and the box will extend.
adjust till you have just the box with no useless blank spaces.
