The k7 is a dual boot machine, and when I am in winblowdoze I do not have the same problem, so I have mostly ruled out hardware problems...(that and hardware has been tested in other situations without problems) I updated both machines this past weekened, to RELENG_4_5 and no longer do = I have this problem.=20 HTH Colin Harford =A0=A0=A0 =A0=A0=A0=A0=A0=A0=A0=A0=A0=A0=A0=A0=A0=A0=A0=A0=A0=A0=A0=A0=A0=A0 =A0=A0=A0=A0=A0=A0=A0=A0=A0=A0=A0=A0=A0=A0=A0 Systems and Network Administrator =A0=A0=A0=A0 Apple Product Professional =3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D =A0=A0=A0=A0 Computer and Network Support =A0=A0=A0=A0=A0=A0=A0=A0 University of Alberta Students' Union =A0=A0=A0=A0=A0=A0=A0=A0=A0=A0=A0=A0=A0=A0=A0=A0=A0 Phone: (780) 492-4241 =A0=A0Fax: =A0(780) 492-4643 http://www.su.ualberta.ca "I sense much NT in you, NT leads to Blue Screen.
