Hi, have had problems with freezing image on TPS foot/star & have upgraded from 733mhz CPU to 1ghz which has helped. Anyone know the best viewer for the least drain on the CPU? DVBdream is useful as it shows the usage. | ||

Is that because XP uses so much more CPU than 98? suppose I could connect a 2nd hard drive with 98 on it? | ||

If not you could always partition you HD. L. | ||

Most mother boards these days have a primary IDE master and slave and a seconday IDE master and slave thus allowing 2 Hard drives and 2 cd Roms without a problem. Of course it may be that your mother board has the connector but no cable but the cable is not difficult to get hold of. | ||
