  'We have a fix if all the perameteres match one less than common set of circumstances'. Or 'we can fix it if its new and has never been altereted from factory specs'. How many of us have a computer that matches those requirments?
   
  maybe I will contact the manufacturer, except thats four different people (including me and Dav) plus all the people whose software or hardware I have installed since then.
   
  Sorry, Ranting and pouting all done now. Thank you Liz, I appreciate the attempt Babes.  :)

...and this was their reply:

"It could be any of number of things.  Without
actually seeing the computer, I don't really have a
good idea of what's going on.  It would probably be
best to have him contact the manufacturer that he got
the computer from."

Sorry.
