Patricia,

>From my experience, 224 meg of memory just isn't enough to run much of
anything.  Your computer is probably using way over half of that just
to run the stuff that makes it work.  Memory is inexpensive,
particularly if you order it from the internet.  If you add 256 meg,
you will see an obvious improvement in what your computer can run plus
everything will run faster.
