    I was trying to explain how you run something to my friend when and what happens when you press start button!!

    **** happens There's also an error if you move to the "new" menu too fast or something you just see one menu "New" instead of the files (Text file, Bitmap, ...)

    Hehe, had that happen before,
    the first time it happened, I thought a "l33t0 hAx0r" broke into my computer with sub7 or something, and deleted all of the "new" context menu registry entries...

    speaking about "l33t0 hAx0r" what has it to do with new context menus especially the start menu?

    Well i thought anyone would notice i typed big green letters out there "R E S O U R C E S" and hoped you could remember that when replying but hmm, that's the point, if you don't have enough resources then fwop! and some items are dropped out of the menus and other annoying stuff with the fonts...

    When you run out of those things that Microsoft calls resources, use a program like RamBooster or MemMonster to free some of those.

    http://www.download.com/

    Also try using a better operating system.

    Question

    Ive just run both Rambooster and Memmonster and freed up 90M of ram, what happened is that everything runs extreeeeemly slow! Isn't it just swapping stuff to the harddrive and then take a lot of time to retreieve it from there?

    I don't know exactly how those apps work. (I should check soon)
    But it frees up the resources, then everything works slowly for a minute or two.
    And it works.

    Windows has this exceptional ability to eat up your entire RAM instantly.
    You'll get over it.

    Do While Me.Restart
    Windows.Eat vbRam
    If Windows.Hungry = True then Resources = Resources/2
    If Windows.Angry = True then MsgBSOD Error(Rnd*256)
    Loop
