Harold, what is the make and model of your computer? I thought you mentioned that you have an HP. --- Peter Kaulback
That was a year ago, I had a HP. When I then moved up to WinXP I got a Compaq Presario (in Staples), Model # SR152NX. Compaq's website asks for Product number (PX801AA-ABA) and the URL is: http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/product?lc=en&cc=us&jumpid=hpr_R1002_USEN&dest_page=product&dlc=en&product=471644 or http://tinyurl.com/r93mc > Harold B. wrote: That's a good question.
