ICQ 2000a a major systems hog?

Recommended Posts

I just picked up a laptop for myself to use here at work so I could strictly put ICQ and run Winamp on it, and keep tabs on some personal websites of mine. 3 things you're not allowed to do with the office computers.

 

It's a CTX 166 notebook, it's only got 16 megs of ram (64M more is on the way, if it ever shows), and it used to seem fast enough with ICQ and Winamp both going before I installed ICQ 2000a. I'm not too sure that is the problem though as I also recently reinstalled Windows 98.. and then installed ICQ 2000. The older versions of ICQ is what I was running before, and Winamp is the same winamp I had on a CDR, 2.5e. Maybe I should get the newest version of that too, but anyway.

 

Is ICQ 2000 a major systems hog comapred to the older versions? I'll go back to an older version if I have to, unless my memory shows and makes everything fine again.

 

Anyone?

you need more ram more than anything else...(at least, unless you can upgrade your processor)
