beautifully worded eshal I hope that there are more posts like this one! Im getting good and bad reports, and even getting some flack for asking for this. dont really care about flack, but its sad that just because "I" dont have a problem, "YOU" dont have one either. Im thrilled for those that have done the upgrade without a hitch..this is a good thing! but Im saddened by the number of posts netwide about problems...so they do exist. Some may indeed be simple hardware conflicts...but some arent. :) thanx all keep 'em coming Brycetech
