per symantec, to reset system doctor: you can first save your current settings via file, save configuration. then close sysdoc and go to start, run. type in: SYSDOC32 /RESET then click OK. (note the space in that line between 2 and /.) sysdoc then restarts. here's where i rebooted to get it to work for my scanning prob. but keep one thing in mind... when you save current settings, restoring the configuration may reintroduce the problem. i tried resetting with first saving my settings. then i thought that it was possible that i was just reintroducing the same old same old, so i deleted the saved settings (i'd named them something easy to spot like 'saved settings'. <g3>) apparently this reset sysdoc remedy is a popular one on the symantec tech support site. i saw it used several times. that's why it came to my mind for your rescue disk alarm prob. imo, hp, the above procedure is not in any way dicey. famous last words. :) mark
