It's got 1 MB RAM and a 3.2GHz Pentium BTW.

I agree that waiting is best, I'm not planning to upgrade my main systems yet, no need, just the laptop.

Appreciate your thoughts.
Andrew, I run XP on both my laptops and neither has crashed. I use both with the Toucam (modified) and neither give any problems, and the Long Exposure mod uses more pooter power than normal Toucam.

Your problem sounds strange indeed.

Both my Laptops are old & small.
