*Hello Basil,

Well I have not even tried too use the driver #173, I let the "hardware 
drivers" tell me what is the best...

I am not sure what you mean I had made a Quote, about the 5500 which 
supports #256 driver...Very
strange, for I do not even have that card, or why I would have even 
mentioned it at all...Since I
know nothing about it in the first place...

HA age 20, how about three times that amount LOL!!!!

Maye you have a GREAT! Day today...

Larry
