Answer
Hello Kent,

There are literally too many possiblities to where your problem is from exactly. I would suggest making sure your system is free and clear from any and all malware/spyware as well as make sure you have all the latest drivers and update security patches available. For this I suggest visiting my website at http://tpsconsulting.com and read the TIPS page on OPTIMIZING your computer (http://tpsconsulting.com/tipoptimize.htm ) Then go to the SOFTWARE/SUPPORT page and install all the programs from the PINK section as they will help with the cleaning/removal and ongoing maintenance from the malware/spyware issues that cause so many problems including what you problems you may be having.

I might also suggest, since you are using windows xp, your computer is more than likely a candidate for the windows 7 upgrade as it is truly well worth it. Since you only require a minimum of 512 mb of memory, I have found this is pretty much the only reason you wouldn't be upgrading to windows 7. The problem is with windows xp, it is getting a lot more difficult keeping it as up to date as with the newer operating system.

Hope this helps,

Sincerely

Mike Dacre
