Hopefully not. Your computer is in the lower range of machines expected to run the Model successfully. Constant running of the graphics will leave little for processing the Model on low-end machines. With 256 Meg of memory, anything else you try to do on the machine will set up so much thrashing (paging program/data pieces in and out to make room for some other temporarily necessary piece) that your Hard Disk will take a constant and severe pounding. Actually, that condition may be present with only CPDN running, thanks to M$ XP bloat.

I\'d not run the graphics, really. I, as well as others, was having a problem with CPDN WU\'s crsahing while running the globe graphics. Since I quit running it at all, I have had no problems with crashes. Crashes, in spite of running a 512 meg video card, 1.024 gigs of DDR2 RAM and a P4 dual-core processor...and all XP Pro and driver updates. So, in my nsho, I recommend against the CPDN graphics. |
