Doc, not meaning to ask a question out of line but have you ever tried just loading everything in to "Downloads?" After over a year of problems I configured a 20gig runtime in the download folder. Everythng loads fast and thigs are cool. The only quirk is that I MUST exit by pointing the red dot back to the default P5 runtime or it will crash on reload and I'll have to start deleting pref files. Just curious if you've seen anything on this approach??? thanks Doc!...(sits quietly back in his chair.) -jay
