Hi Ken It is a relatively clean install. I have PSDR, N1MM, VAC, MixW, JT65HF, VE7CC ARUser. Windows Updates are off.
AVG Free and ZoneAlarm. AVG is disabled manually for a bit of improvement. DPC is a bit better with wireless turned of but then I am flying blind. I have a nano wireless USB adaptor (Edimax) but it turns out that if I turn off the main (internal) wireless then the USB one doesn't work either so I couldn't use the USB one without the internal one grabbing the signal making the USB one redundant. On winXP I used to have Gboost but it seems to no longer be supported as I installed it and dialling home fails and the forum on the Gboost site says closed. Frustrated and missing CQWW :( 9 out of every 10 loads ups don't start successfully and the 1 that does work usually bombs out with an error.
