Glitter Baby The original Census prints fine, the problem Duncan and I have is the transcription pages. Everything was fine until Ancestry got the stupid adverts! Dawn

Duncan If your computer is on a go slow - check out the Thread on here regarding computer maintenance from Judy in the States. I'll see if I can find it and bump it up for you. Dawn

Thanks Dawn. But I think the main problem is that it only has a slow processor, whatever that means, and a small memory - it's got 40 of something and 256 of something else but I don't know what either of them mean. Duncan

Duncan Please don't baffle me!! I believe that whatever capacity your computer you still need to maintain it otherwise it will get slow - don't be put off by the number of posts on Judy's Thread there are a lot of nudges on it. Worth a read. Well its way past my bedtime, so nite nite everyone. Dawn

Hiya Duncan, 40 summat and 256 whatsits will make your work/research slow and frustrating. Is there anyone in your family, preferably very young, who can advise you on upgrading your summat's and whatsits. I'm not taking the michael when I say 'preferably very young', amazing what our kids know about these here 'poota's. Regards Merv ps: You should be looking to upgrade your pc to a minimum of 60 gigabytes and 512mb memory card. If the first is not viable the latter can be achieved by purchasing another 256mb memory card and adding it to your 'tower', it really is easy when you've done it once ! Honestly, if you've a youngster in the family I'd be very surprised if they didn't know what to do.

Hello everyone Haven't really got much else to add except that I too choose the 'save to my computer' option. I used to print all of my reports but as the quantity I have has increased I now just store them electronically. I use the source reference as the file name ie: RG12_1234_Folio4_Page3 and cross reference it in my notes. Other than that I would like to say how nice it was to read a thread that was interesting and made me smile too, Kate :) PS, Duncan hope you get your summits and wotsits sorted soon ;)
