Howdy again, just to let you know....I solved the problem the old fashioned way and re installed my xp.There was no other flaw in the previous installation but this :(And the installation it self had only been in use for few weeks.Well go figure, the new one works like a charm and i'm allready up in the skies.With regardsOHCWBKeijo KettunenFinland
