G,
the computer is all so new, not even a year.. it will be a year old in... October? I think !
Its a brand new hard drive... video card, more RAM ,etc...
The OS hasn't been on quite a year.
I don't know if the registry is the problem, as my PC isn't that old, and I don't do much install/uninstall, but nonetheless, it's a possibility.. and I will get a registry cleaner this evening... as well as search for that executable you told me about. Greatly appreciate all your input so far... keep it coming
