Nick, you seem to know quite a bit about system maintenance, thanks for all the suggestions.  I have been having lots of FS errors reporting involving the ntdll.dll.  I uninstalled my sim, completely cleaned the system, reinstalled and after a few hours the errors returned.  I dont know much about the ntdll, can I pull it off the install disk and replace the current one?  Wil this cause major problems within the system?  Any help would be greatly appreciated.  Todd

System specs: Pent 4 2.6 ghz with 800 FSB
Soyo Dragon plus 2 Mother board
1 gig 3200 Ram
ATI 9600 Pro 128 using Cat 5.10
2, 80 gig Maxtor HD with 8mb buffer
Win XP SP 2
FS is run on D drive and is only program on there.

That ntdll.dll file error is usually caused by a borked Windows install or other system conflict. I cant say what it is for sure and I certainly can't say a Windows reinstall will fix it for sure but assuming you are not running any wierd 3rd party add-on with FS, you may want to consider a Windows re-install after backing everything up. Sometimes a fresh start is the best way to get rid of problems. Following the correct maintenance and driver install during that process also increases performance and gets rid of headaches.
