Well, I was hoping to install a video card but unfortunately my computer chassis only had one slot in the back which the Vital card is occupying. Since taking that out wasn't and option, I went ahead and installed a second processor since the board supports it. This seemed to do the trick and the PERIOD is now set to .00002 and I'm running without problems. Thanks guys! Craig
