Karsten:

	Thank you for the advice.  That did the trick!
	BTW, do you know how to solve this problem?
	I just installed Windows 2000 Pro with Service Pack 3 on my PC; and, so far so good except for one thing.  I

notice that some apps don't open as fast they did under Windows 98SE. The best examples are IE 5.5 and any folder window. Forte' Free Agent doesn't close as fast as it used to as well. Any suggestions on how to speed things up?

	Here is my system:
		AMD 1.1 GHZ
		512 SDRAM 133 MHZ
		Gigabyte motherboard
		60 GB Maxtor ATA 133 hard drive
		NTFS configured file system (would FAT32 be faster?)
		Indexing installed
