Yay, second class canceled and easy test for first. ^_^
So I have one more tip for you. Before you play, shut down your net connection. Not only does it often suck a fair bit of memory (especially if you have an older Linksys wireless adapter with a memory leak bug, like I did back when I ran the old box) shutting it down also allows you to turn off two processes that must be running when you're online: your antivirus and firewall. Usually, turning off your net connection and shutting both AV and firewall down will free up anywhere from 10,000kb to 30,000kb of RAM, and when you need all you can get. . .
