Hi Jimmy. Sorry I wasn't able to continue last night. I
don't have Kazaa. I only have one CD drive also. If it is
a software problem, what should I look for? Would it have
to be a program that runs everytime the game loads, or is
running in the background. I rarely have anything running
while gaming. I also keep my startup pretty clean. My
video card tweaker program is about all the non-windows
programs that load at startup. I switched to XP from
Millenium a few months ago and it did not happen in Mill.

Thanx. Canuck
 
Hi Canuck,

I'm actually looking to you for a lot of those answers since
it's a relatively new problem, and I haven't experienced it,
nor are there any knowledge base articles on the subject.

Check your running processes, make a list of them here
and we'll see if others who have the same problem have
the same programs running. Try not running your video
card tweaker for a week to see if that has anything to do
with it. Try the advice in my previous post to you also.

I can't find my last post to you. It helps if you quote my
posts when you reply to them. :-)
