Since this is my main machine, I'm waiting for the next boot before investigating again. From memory, it was failing two interrupt probes (5 and 8? Can't remember, so don't rely on the info. I'll get it again). There's also one other bloke who promised to send me the info, so I'll send that on here. Greg
