Ok, this might be possible. Anyway, the least we would need to know is whether my suggested manual fix did really fix the problem. Neither Heikki (sp?) nor some other guy whom i've been suggesting this method did get back with _any_ feedback however. Guys, it's not only that you should complain here, you should rather _co-operate_. Our ideas are worthless without getting feedback. (No, i'm not going to buy just another motherboard to see your problems fixed. Even if i did -- i wouldn't had the problem in the first place, or whaddaya think why i've been inventing the ``dangerously dedicated'' mode? :) -- cheers, J"org joerg_wunsch@uriah.heep.sax.de -- http://www.sax.de/~joerg/ -- NIC: JW11-RIPE Never trust an operating system you don't have sources for. ;-)
