I have ended my 4 month ordeal. I took the advice, given to me on this
forum, and increased my RAM from 1 GB to
3 GB. Anyone who is experiencing system instability with Vista and running
only 1 GB RAM needs to, as a first step, upgrade to at least 2 GB. I'm sure
there are many like me who after successfully using XP with 256K RAM thought
that
1 GB in their new Vista machine was more than adequate. WRONG, WRONG,
WRONG!!
As cheap as memory is these days, any manufacturer who delivers a Vista
machine with less than 2 GB is doing a grave injustice to their customers
and themselves.
The amazing part, to me, is that DELL suffered with me for 3 months, and
even replaced the motherboard in my computer (to no avail) and never advised
me to increase my RAM. The contract tech that did the replacement suggested
that I heed the advice already given on this forum. I did, and for $50, I am
now a happy Vista user.

Dell is no different than all the other American companies. Their only
concern is for profit and market share. They outsource all their customer
support and technical support to third world countries because the labor is
so cheap. Why pay an American a decent wage when you can pay someone else a
very low wage.
Sadly, customer support and technical support is very poor among most
American companies. The staff know only what they can read in the training
manuals provided them. I don't fault the workers themselves. I lay the blame
squarely where it belongs; on the companies.
Your best source of knowledgeable information is here in the discussion
groups.

Dell tech learned PC's in a two day course.
My tech was shocked to see 2 video cards in SLI...thought I messed up the PC
that way.
