Administrator Performance Below are some ways you can optimize the performance of ChemFinder : 1. Install more physical RAM. The more you have, the less ChemFinder will have to access your hard disk to use Virtual Memory. 2. Increase the Virtual Memory (VM). Virtual memory extends RAM by allowing space on your hard disk to be used as RAM. However, the time for swapping between the application and the hard disk is slower than swapping with physical RAM. You can change VM for Windows 95/98/NT 4.0 on the System control panel, Performance tab. System Crashes should never crash, but below are the steps you should go through to try to resolve issues that cause computer crashes while using a CS software product. 3. Restart Windows, then try to reproduce the problem. If the problem does reoccur, keep reading. 4. The most common conflicts for Windows users concern Video Drivers, Printer Drivers, screen savers, and virus protection. If you do end up needing to contact us, be sure to determine what type and version of drivers you are using. Video Driver-related problems: If you are having problems with the display of ChemFinder , try switching to the VGA video driver in the display Control Panel (or System Setup) and retest the problems. If using a different driver helps, your original driver may need to be updated. Contact the maker of the driver and obtain the most up-to-date driver. If you still have trouble, contact us with the relevant details about the original driver and the resulting problem. Printer Driver-related problems: Try using a different printer driver. If using a different driver helps, your original driver may need to be updated-contact the maker of the driver and obtain the most up-to-date driver. If you still have trouble, contact us with the relevant details about the original driver and the resulting problem. 5. Try reinstalling the software. Before you reinstall, uninstall the software and disable all background applications, including screen savers and virus protection. Use the Add/Remove Control Panel. 6. If the problem still occurs, fax, e-mail, or use the WWW at: http://www.cambridgesoft.com/support/mai l to submit the details of the problem to Technical Support. A-24 • CambridgeSoft Troubleshooting
