   WE not IE.

   	Once more, Alan.

   	You have been exploring more than I, Alan. I have not noticed this, it did   
   not prick my curiosity. As Tom would say : if it runs !   
      
   	I have just redone the W-8 machine as it would double start the BIOS for an   
   unknown reason still not resolved after this redo. Might it be the power   
   supply ? It wakes up from Sleep fine but a cold start gives me the background   
   screen, just before the PW but then goes to the BIOS initialization again.   
   Very strange !   
      
   	The P4 ASUS was redone to W-7 too. Talk about a funny here. I have this 3-key   
   W-7, 32 bit CD, it will not accept the keys given on the label ! I used the   
   keys from the Toshiba laptop and they were accepted. No rime, no reason ! I am   
   back on W-7 on it as it will not accept the latest W-8, the RP, it ran fine on   
   the CP, initial version. Not a fast machine but fine as a backup to all my   
   data, the Network runs from/to it, LAN-wise.   
      
   	As ED would want to say : Computors are fun !
