Shaun, I'm trying to narrow down if perhaps I might have done something to
cause this. When I first bought my computer (around 8 Feb 07 with Vista
preinstalled) I always rec'd an error message for incompatibility for a Sonic
Sound driver. I found a 'fix' online but at this point I forget exactly what
that enailed. (You can read this thread ...
http://forums.cnet.com/5208-12546_10...sageID=2400027 ... that was one thread I read to solve that problem.)
I was wondering if you had that same initial driver error as well? This
might be completely unrelated but this issue got me thinking.
