If the update "takes," I'll update the RAM to 512KB.
Let us know how you come out.
I have a desktop with twice that much RAM but somehow I thought XP
required more. If yours works, I might give XP Home a shot on my spare
desktop.
Can anybody suggest a reliable online source that supplies legitimate
XP Home OS at a reasonable price?

XP Pro runs on 384KB. I haven't installed any software yet, but the OS
certainly runs properly.
Microsoft says 64 MB minimum, not KB.

Yeah, yeah, yeah...typo on my part.

Typo usually means "miss typed", as in "fat fingered"

You made several posts with the same error. That makes it technically, a
boo-boo.




So, what do I have to do for penance? Pretend I'm Reggie?

Although the LEnovo Thinkpads are quality merchandise, I wouldn't buy a
new one because of the Chinese connection.

You do realize that Lenovo had been making the "IBM" units for quite a
while, don't you?

Yup, but my Thinkpad was manufactured in 2001, in the good old U.S.A. of
Mexico, or so it says on the sticker label on the back of it. It says
"Made by IBM...Manufactured in Mexico."

I imagine it is still packed with Asian chips.

Corn chips and salsa.

Speaking of corn chips and salsa, I have an addiction to baked
Tostitos and Newman's (or Imus Ranch) medium salsa. I have a slight
preference for the Imus Ranch salsa, but I also like the Newman's.

I can plow through a bag and a jar in nothing flat.

I should have mentioned, to the guys I've been talking with about
Agent, don't attach a question under here. I won't see it! LoL!
..........hmmm... well, unless I specifically look for it, then
manually mark the header unread, then manually download the body. Like
I'm about to do with Mr BARscrew you's reply ;-)
