Visit nVidia and see if they have a newer video driver, also upgrade
directDraw. Perhaps your beast will hum too.
Thanks. I'll give it a try.
...It is newer than mine.
:-0 I was thinking as I wrote that. ..The PC's
I was using earlier this year on a Swing contract,
ran like molasses.
The contractors argued till they were blue in the face,
that developers needed machines with 'all bells and whistles'
to justify the money they cost.
Management quietly ingored them, probably thinking that
as soon as you give high-grade machines to developers,
they start writing software to suit (resource hungry).
I think management was on to a good thing. The 'molasses'
PC's stayed, and any momentary pause in the GUI was
*painfully* obvious. ;-)
