Your lack of ram would be one reason why. I remember reading somewhere that minimum amount to run windows XP alone was already 256MB. Go and get yourself some more ram, Newegg.com has it for cheap.
As for your graphics card, check under control panel->System->hardware->device manager->display
Where did you get the comp, and was it prebuilt, like dell or compairable type?Comment

I have an SiS 650
I think before it said minimum requirement of RAM was like 64 or something.
edit: I bought it at wal mart, it was pre built and it's a hp pavilion 551wLast edited by FreakBaller12; 07-12-2004, 10:01 PM.I knew not what I did but am now edumacatedComment

get 512 RAM.
Use adaware to destroy all nasty spyware taking up space and reading your passwords.
Go to disk cleanup and run disk cleanup, delete everything in those folders. Then go to disk fragmentation, and defrag your pooter.
Then keep your computer clean and in order.
Carry on......

that is borderline specs for xp
you do need more ram as stated
also try defragging
if you dont mind the loss of quality go to your video card settings and change them to

more solutions:
a) more ram
b) your vid card is on board...that is awful...what that means is it uses some of your memroy so if its a 64 meg vid card, it uses 64 megs of your 128meg ram chip for vid storage, get a real vid card
c) close all programs when running DPB
d) get a new computer.A Sanchez Machine Distributor
