My main system properties display recently began to look like this: http://server6.uploadit.org/files/aerowind-ProblemAppearance.JPG I found the problem, which is this: http://server6.uploadit.org/files/aerowind-ProblemCause.JPG Due to the fact that my system properties didn't look like this when I first got my computer, and also that the hardcoded processor name has no offending spaces in it (see final screenshot below) I blame Windows. If I try to change the registry, it reverts after any restart. *Hardcoded Name: http://server6.uploadit.org/files/aerowind-NoProblemHere.JPG Thanks for any help.

What exactly is your question? Borderrose

How do I fix the appearance error? It shouldn't look like that. The processor name and CPU speed should be on their own respective lines, but there's some extra spaces I can't permanently remove in the registry messing it up.

Hi, I understand your problem is best explained below: http://www.jsiinc.com/SUBP/tip7600/rh7604.htm It is also accepted by microsoft as a flaw in the system. Following article is there to support it: http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;En-US;832617 Now, this is a flaw with windows xp and doesn't look we have a solution on this. Good job bringing it forward. If somebody has some other opinion, please do post your opinion. Thnx
