Hi Bob:

Remember a few weeks ago, you stated that Vista, was always crashing.

It may be a hardware problem. Every 6 months or so, you need to do a
little Confuser maintenance. Clean the Fans, and put a drop of oil in
them. Clean the heat sinks, because things get hotter when covered in
dust. Clean and replace the Heat sink compound, on your CPU, and your
AGP Card if you have one of these. That White Heat Sink Compound can
turn Petrified, and then it does not work real good. My AGP card started
to over heat, and my CPU temperature got a bit high. So playing Videos,
ran into problems, and you might think it would be the software that is
doing this, but heat can do it too. Use something soft to remove the
petrified Compound from the AGP and CPU Chips, like a Fingernail:) I use
that Silver Thermal Compound, and now there are no Glitches, when I run
software, or freezing the Confuser. Things stay cool now! Winders Vista
might even run -sort of :)

Alfred!
