Phoon, thanks for your quick reply. I love your themes. I even posted a comment on the Olive theme download site at Wincustomize. Olive is a work of art, and exactly the kind of appearance I'd like to achieve when I start skinning my own themes. And yes, I did download the latest driver off the nVidia website, in the hopes that it would solve things, which it didn't. And yes, my computer is becoming an antique in a hurry. I need my son to build me a new system. But, I don't have the money right now, and won't in the forseeable future. I just had to buy a new car.
I digress..........
Powerleap is a brand of processor upgrade that enabled me to upgrade that aching old mobo as high as 1.2ghz. I learned about Powerleap, www.powerleap.com, from the Dell user forum, which by the way is the best bunch of computer geeks I've found anywhere on the web. A great resource for assistance about anything computer related, gee..... including Dell's.
I had Olive working on my desktop for a few days before it started dragging my system down (which is why I think that DesktopX keeps filling up the memory in a way that I think is called a leak). But, in that time, while I was busy configuring Olive to suit my needs, I learned so much about the program. I learned that DesktopX is really my program of choice to develop a comprehensive desktop. It's quite a gem of a program. So, not being able to run it is really disappointing.
I'm gonna start looking at maybe upgrading just my video card. Any suggestions? I'm also going to Dell's user forum for recommendations. I gotta tell ya, though. This whole skinning thing is starting to cost me. The amount of time and money that's going into this (I installed another 256mb RAM card for this), and the time is starting to border on ADDICTION!!!!
