Thanks for the quick response. My bad, I did not say I am using Hoster 321a on XP. I am really bummed that I would have to uninstall and reinstall Hoster. That pretty much negates any advantage to starting now with the slower CPU.

The CPU upgrade would not affect XP at all. You just have to go into the bios at first boot, have it recognize the new cpu or load the appropriate data and restart. I have done that a number of times over the years on my other computers without any problems with XP or Microsoft requiring re-activation. Perhaps that is a new thing with Vista.

But, since you think it will make a difference on Hoster I guess I will wait another week until my new CPU arrives. Thanks again for the quick response.
