After making CDs and playing games.. the computer seems a little sluggish ... any ideas why ? Using Win2k, 1.4 Ghz o/c to 1533 [11.5 x 133]. It is only after I restart the compter then it is fine. I installed the AMD AGP for applications, SP2, etc... seems not to do anything... as though something is holding on to its memory.

You guys both have the Via 686 B southbridge, right? Aside from the AMD Northbridge patches, be sure to install all southbridge related via 4in1 patches. That may help; at least it's worth a try. They're up to version 4.36 of the 4 in 1s already.

Yes it is all enabled in the BIOS as well as the Control Panel.................... Using Windows 2000 + SP2 and all patches after patches and more patches + new patches over old patches..... can you imagine if the computer was a human being with all those patches..... looks kinda dumb. I thought not long ago.... there was something pertaining to memory leak within Win2k... not sure if SP2 fixed that issue. Well if Win2k or Xp had no problems... MS$ would be out of business... think about it.... a 100% stable OS...??? No one would upgrade.
