When I want to change the program file that opens a file such as an mp3 I highlight the file and right click on it, then I click on "opens with" and it gives me a few limited options and at the bottom of the window it gives me the option of using a file to be chosen from my other programs. Unfortunately when I click on this I get a "Windows host process (rundll32) has stopped working." It seems to do this with any type of file. Does this mean that my 768MB of ram is insufficient? I can't come up with any other reason but it seems like 3/4 gig should be enough to perform a simple process like this. Thanks for your help in advance. -Brock
