Thanks Jim. My machine usually runs pretty good. I take good care of it
but as you say, times do warrant a reformat. I keep saying I am going to
get an external backup but haven't as of yet. It has been over a couple
years since I reformatted and I know I need to do it again. I have been
able to stabilize it once again but there is allot of garbage that I
need to get rid of.
Thanks for your time in replying to my post.
