Hi Jerry, Our esteemed leader Señor Ferrin keeps a direct download link for the latest version of CCleaner on the programs page of the Jaws-Users website. It's under the Disk And Registry Cleanup Utilities heading. The link is below.

Wow, 8088? I remember those. Actually, my first laptop was an 8086 running I think Dos 4.10, later upgraded to Dos 5.0. Think this was back in the late 1980's. I am pretty sure even a 15 year old computer would trounce that 8086 any day of the week with both hands tied behind it's back. At any rate, give the programs I mentioned a whirl and see what happens. Oh, and the less running in the background, the better, especially for the memory test. If you are interested in the docking station I mentioned, here's a link for it. https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00T0ZRAOK/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o08_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 Shane On 2/27/2017 9:54 PM, Lenny McHugh wrote: > Shane, > I do not have the docking station.
