JRS and Greg,
Thank you, thank you, thank you for this link! What a great tool! Much
better info also. I've washed my lan of all my old H.Oda apps and
installed this to all my machines. Completely accepted by new and
old. Superb tool.
Now, I get to research why my new E8400's seem to loaf along at only 2.0GHz
instead of 3.0GHz. Not really a problem because otherwise these machines
"feel like" they are visually quicker that the previous AMD Barton 2500+
cpus. Very happy with this upgrade.
John,
Upgraded my NAS box from 256MB to 1GB of RAM. It got noticeably faster in
both access time and file moves in and out. Good fix! Ever notice how
tiny the box is????? LOL!!
Best,
Duncan

Does anyone still use this old tool? I realize that the author, H.Oda,
walked away from development some years ago and turned it over to some
group I read as "NrkLv."
I had been using v3.1a on my old W2K systems. Bro turned me on to a new
version, v3.30. OK.
Now have 5 XPproSP3 clients. 4 of them play V3.30 w/o problems.
My 5th client crashes hard (reboots!) when either v3.1a or v3.30 are
started! 2 weeks of research seems to point at the file
NRKCTL32.SYS. But, I can not find any reasonable remedy yet.
Yes, this 5th XP client is put together with all my remaining "suspect"
parts from the past 2 months. And, yes, there was a bad dimm found! But,
otherwise, this collection of parts now seems to run XP w/o any other
problem! I've even used it to burn my first 2 CD's........... :)
Am I confused? You betcha! Ideas, opinions, suggestions are welcome!
Best,
Duncan
