I was thinking the next time I need to rebuild, I'll kick it up to real time and see if that is any faster.
With my computers being old like me I figure if I try to make them think to fast they'll make mistakes

fast rebuild on vista

I'm amazed at the speed you are getting out of your rebuild. I have a Gateway laptop w/ vista home premiuim. Not the highest level about $550.00 when I bought it. AMD turion 64x2, realtek, ATI radeon. Also when I go online to download the 4.08 upgrade will they recognize my original purchase and let mre download at no charge?

You should be able to check for the upgrade from within Hoster.

Don't click on the Buy Now or you will have to pay for the upgrade. Instead as Mark said open Hoster and go to Help/Check for Updates and that will take you to the download page.

I would then try what Mark said to do. If it doesn't work that way, then try setting it back to administrator. Be sure both times that you check the box to change it on all sub-folders and files.

Thanks for the info. I went in and got a page that talks about all the requirements the computer must have to handle the software. I guess my gateway is under gunned. It says I need at least 2 gig ram, 1.5 processer, both of which are not in my computer. I have decided to get a new computer that I won't have so many issues with once and for all. I am tempted to wait for Windows 7 but don't know if you would recommend that. If I go with a new laptop with Vista in it, what model or brand do you recommend that will be worth its weight at a cost that won't break the bank

Your best bet in my opinion is to go with Dell, go to the Small Business section. There you can still get XP put on it. The Dell Lattitude 5500 we just bought works great and the internal drive does work with CDG.

Thanks for the suggestion. I'm going to do it right away. I can't wait to get XP back in my hands. This is the first time I have really explored mtu community. Its awsome that you are providing this info since its not available directly from a support team. I have always loved Hoster but was always frustrated with tryiung to get quick response from them. This forum is very valuable to all Hoster customers.
Thanks again,
Ed
