Perhaps it was the deep breath that did it - pleased it turned out well.
Yes, the IDE disaster was not pleasant and not simple for some to rectify. Hopefully it
never happens again.
Beware of downloading any hardware drivers etc from WU. Always check the manufacturer's
site first.

| Thanks for your reply.
| After the first attempt at download when I received a BSOD, when I was
| re-offered the download an info icon told me the update was downloaded
| and I should select install again.
| I took a deep breath and tried again, this time it installed OK.
| After the IDE disaster, when I had to do a complete re-install, I was
| more than doubtful but as I was able to reboot after BSOD on this one, I
| took a chance.
| Thanks again.
