The Programmer recomends that 16MB for 40 / 2hrs. and so you could probaly go to 32MB for Longer times! As for the Personality Settings, you migh want to try CM6555, but experiment by using the Brute Force and decreasing the Selective Search to less than the Default of 6 but only if you are letting it search well overnight. This way it wont miss anything but it will take alot longer in the Search! Its just an idea! Best Regards, Terry Ripple
