Hi, Karma.

Crossposting is not bad, so long as it is not abused. Careful selection of
2 or 3 appropriate NGs is quite acceptable.

What is that? A modem? A printer? Graphics card? What? Do you have the
right WinXP drivers for it?

These lines sound like you haven't yet dumped the Win9x/ME mindset. We
never worry about "free resources" in WinXP. And WinXP has no need for the
concept of "high memory" like we had to deal with in MS-DOS and Win9x/ME.
Are you dual-booting with an MS-DOS-based version of Windows on this
computer?

I have other questions, but these will do for now.
