Our Rev application is to be used on kiosks, so the software (which has a lot of moving parts to it) could be used continuously throughout a given day. We're currently testing it under XP Home and seeing some instability over the course of use. I'm starting to think most of these problems are external to the application, as they occur unpredictably, without any pattern, and are difficult to reproduce on demand. Two items come to mind: inadequate RAM (512 on a new Fujitsu laptop) and our use of XP Home.

I don't know what else is running on this Fujitsu that might be effecting reliability. It's an off-the-shelf unit and I'm not familiar enough with XP to know which software I can disable (being a Mac person) to make the unit more reliable.

My question is, would upgrading to XP Pro or Embedded possibly create a more reliable unit, and/or would adding more RAM make a difference (the Rev application is the only application I am intentionally running on this unit).

Thanks.
