It is a Compaq CQ60 with Nvidia GeForce 8200m G, 16:9, 1366X768 graphics. One review called this the poorest rating they had ever seen for a laptop, and there are numerous complaints about its speed for games. But I bought it for a special purpose and to have WIndoze in the house (Vista ugh), a mostly Mac house. It runs well with the DVD and has run Ubuntu and several of the puppies since it was new.

Thanks for the quick reply

BTW, I tried to run it on a Dell machine with XP but the bios wouldn't boot from USB. I saw what to do about that somewhere, but have forgotten where.

BTW2, I tried to download 7.4 but Norton wouldn't let me download BitTorrent. I'll put Norton to sleep to do so when I have time.
