Looking for Help with Computer Problem

[Michael J. Sykes]

My search for information on Norton's Diagnostic program revealed that it is known to provide false positive results (i.e., falsely detect errors) on systems with more than 256mb of RAM. [In my case, it not only detected errors but also caused insufficient memory error messages.] I hate when I have to solve problems myself! [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]

A couple of sources said that the Norton diagnostic program would run correctly if I first edited the VCACHE values in the system.ini file through use of the SYSEDIT program. This led to my discovery that there is no SYSEDIT program on my computer. Is this reason for concern? Assuming that the Norton Diagnostic program is crap, is there any RAM-related reason for me to mess around with the SYSTEM.INI file?
