Sean, I tried that sysinternals program when I was dual-booting with NT and a FAT32 95/98 partition. I installed it according to the directions, but still couldn't read the FAT32 partition. If anyone out there has used it, please let me know your experiences. I'll e-mail the guys there when I get a chance to see if there's something else I need to do. Len P.S. Update on the 19" monitors. I saw that same Digital Research monitor, with the MAG label instead of the D.R. one (MAG actually makes them both) at Costco tonight for $469. It has 3 yr warranty, and .26 dot pitch. In that the rebate is now over on the D.R., and Computer City now has it for $549, Costco looks to be the better deal.

Since you and spots seem to know what your talking about. See if you can help solve a problem Dell can't. Dell XPS R400 P2 400 128 EEC Ram 10 gig Ultra HD (7200 rpm) STB 8 meg video NEC P1150 monitor My add on: Umax 1200s scanner Comunicator 4.06 NU3.07 Quicktime 3 Every so often, usually on a warn boot, or sometimes just working away, I will get a "grey" screen. There is a click from the monitor and the screen goes all grey. The only way to solve it is to shut the system down. It is hard to say when the problem started, as I have only had the puter for 4 days. Note: There was a conflict with the scanner driver and the machine, that has been fixed. Dell doesn't know what the (grey screen)problem is. I am tempted to do a clean install of everything as a last resort. Must be a conflict somewhere?? I remember I had a strange problem with a mother board years ago. It had a hail line crack in it, when the puter heated up, I would loose the use of "A" drive. Many Many hours to figure out the main board was to blame. Any ideas guys?
