    System Resources

    To MJR. My experience with MemTurbo has been great, especially for use with graphics type programs that really eat resources. The only I did notice is that it sometimes helped for me to close MemTurbo down when doing things like using DirectCD to access my digital camera pics before I had...

    System Hangs...?????? Help..!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    Some things to consider. What is running besides C? What is running in the background that loads at startup? It's possible that something else running is conflicting with C. While you're programming, perhaps it's best to have as little else as possible open.

    Monitor Darkness

    Is your laptop still under warranty? If not, and something is wrong with the display, it can still be sent in as an Out of Warranty repair. Dell has their own technical support which can be accessed either by phone or email (of course support isn't offered if the original OS isn't installed)...

    MemTurbo is a really cool geek tool. No, it's not a part of WinME. You can download a 30 day free trial from www.memturbo.com. If you decide you want it, it's only like $20.

    unknown 3com us robotics modem

    The program that cleans the registry of modem entries (for a winmodem) is called wmregdel.exe and it's on the Win98 CD under the x:\drivers\modem\3com-usr\winmodem folder (x being the drive letter of your CDROM). If you have a hardware modem, this is not the route to go. If you're running...

    All the above suggestions are wonderful, but I've done all of them. I'm running WinME, I have 512MB RAM thrown in, with MemTurbo running (it's an awesome geek tool!). MemTurbo fixes a lot of those memory leaks and for most people will do the trick. I have everything possible unchecked from my...
