I don't know.  I was not in my client's office in NYC and only communicated
with e-mail and 1 phone call.  This person is not my client.  

I don't even want to venture a guess as this was a Dell computer and I don't
know what model.

Would Dell be so stupid as to use a Vista troubled chipset?  Their
purchasing agents couldn't be that stupid.  Or could they?
