I appreciate this advice Terry and I would like the option of IE. I
started out with it and have experimented with versions up to 5, but on
both the 7200 board and the present configuration under 8.1 and 8.6 it
would barely run
It was unusable. An ISP tech told me IE needs a lot more memory .Netscape
starting with 4.7 seems the lesser evil. I will try again . However I
need the Netscape until IE can work for me.

It's been set to 24.5 Mb since I installed 4.76 . I can give it more .but
need room to run other programs at the same time 'though.

This may well be the case. However I run it on two separate drives and it
does the same booted from either one under 8.6 on both.

When I'm earning big bux doing web sites I'll max it out . My disability
pension leaves little in the budget for extras.
I t took me quite a while to piece this machine together as it is.
