<table cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0" border="0" ><tr><td valign="top" style="font: inherit;"><DIV>Thanks for the link Rudy but it's too late, I've already started making changes....I'm also going to trade in my computer for something different (a small used computer place in town does this), something with a better graphics card without these headaches.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>I can't have the computer mess up like this when I'm not at home to tend to it because then my wife gets very upset and she's not computer literate so she could never solve something like this on her own.</DIV>
