Hi Nemer, Thanks for the kind words. I forgot about micron. Must have been my last experience with one. They had a good reputation for fast, cutting edge boxes. But the last one I worked on was a real lemon. Had a micron branded GEForce 256 AGP Creative video card and a Voyetra sound card (voyetra's already out of business) and was locking up like crazy. I ended up replacing them with a SB Live value sound card and an 8 Meg ATI Rage Pro AGP video card. That was about four months ago and it hasn't had a problem since. I guess sometimes you can be too cutting edge. I figure the local shops are making their money installing replacement AMD, PII, and PIII CPU fans (been the biggest cause of trouble that I've seen over the last 2 years) and re-installing software :). Best, Steve
