I have a good suggestion but I doubt that you would take it.

Take your computer, load it in your plane, climb out to 20k ft and shove it
out. I guarantee it will end your problem. Short of that, get rid of Windows
XP.

Robert Reed is correct. The Gods use Linux or OSX. Only mortals and
lower demigods use Windows.

If you must use Windows, use 2000 pro.

Robert Reed, the Gods have seen you. You are a gentleman and you are
a welcome visitor in any of our lands. It is our hope and belief that
you will be successful in your project. We will entreat Apollo and
Mercury, Gods of flight, to protect you as you fly your craft.

And I suppose you're Lucifer if you use OpenBSD, right? :-)

Lucifer uses CP/M.

Many of the Gods use OpenBSD on secondary machines, several of us
attended the hackathon at Calgary. But few would have understood the
reference.

You must have issues with XP and some of your drivers, or programs, if you
are having problems with it. I am running XP, and I have never had so few
problems as I am having now. A lockup occurs now on the average of only one
or two per month, and that is with it being left on 24/7, mostly.

True, it is Windoz, and I know there are problems, but for the majority of
us who want to run all of the programs out there, and don't have the ability
to fool with something else, XP is the greatest thing MS has ever done.

I'll have to go was my mouth out with soap now. I can't believe I am going
on and on like this! <g>

I used to dos around a bit, however I've never done a cp slash m

I got out my old Osborne CP/M machine just this last weekend and fired
it up to see it it would still run and it does. Its been probably 12
years since I run it last.

This is a canard. Lucifer does not use CP/M. He just wrote the
documentation.

IIRC One of the C/PM manuals set the long time recodr for bad and usless
documentation.

At Arlington last weekend, I discovered that this popular, high-end
aviation product runs NT on a 233 MHz Pentium:

Note however that the GPS that drives it runs an avionics-certified
RTOS of some sort. Interesting.

That is because us mortals use applications instead of operating systems. I
don't give *&(% about the operating system as long as the application does
what I want it to do.

And here I was scared to identify myself as a Linux user (AKA Newbe).

So if you are using Linux, what newsreader do you use?
