Thanks for the suggestions, RiggsFolly. I appreciate the promptness of the reply.
I'll try out your suggestions. Right now, I'm kind of slammed with deadlines, and so it will be a few days. If you think it appropriate, I can report on the results. I'm using the 32-bit build of WampServer 2.5. As I mentioned before, the desktop is running Windows 7 64-bit and the laptop is running Windows 8.1.
