That should be fun. If you were running Vista, it's probably time anyway.

When you were having trouble reloading Windows 7 I was going to suggest maybe you try Windows 8. But I recently tried an upgrade from Vista to Windows 8 on an older laptop. It seemed to go fine, but then it started to give me problems, including refusing to connect to the Internet. Only way I could figure out to fix it was to do a clean install of Windows 8. That seemed to do the trick, and I haven't had any more problems.

Hey mark I was running win7 64 before he crashed but I couldn't reinstall it don't know why.
But this was a PC with a pre installed vista image on it so I put it back to its original configuration to get it working again but you have to go true 3 days of backups..
I have 6GB in it but it sees only 3 because of the 32 bit O/S
I'm going to use this one as my backup and put all my plastic modelling references on it and maybe see if I can use some of its memory in the new one.

But the new one will be fast I think I'm going to buy me a subscription on the new photoshop CC will see how things go..

Looks like the same problem Mark
But it runs fine now on vista so I think i will leave it alone for now

JR would tell you that they are his Dad's, I would say they are "ours". His mission profile is going to require something faster with substantially more seats and range, but that's a story for another time. Partly because this is coming to fruition so rapidly I am not sure I can stand the "G"'s
