Marty,

Many ways to skin a cat with the 800CT! Stay win W2K. Pull the W2K Professional Service Configuration off of www.blkviper.com to disable multiple unused RAM drain processes. Purchase a used 64MB RAM upgrade from eBay. Use all pcmcia slots and in hot swap mode! System runs smooth as silk. Enjoy.
