Hi Vladimir,

I have written a small program to show the channel scrolling problem on
the nforce 2 chipset. 

James tested it on his system and the problem did not occur. I tested it
on an Intel/Analog devices system the problem does not occur. It is
specific to the nforce2 chipset. 

I was wrong when I said it occurred on the intel system (There is
another problem I am tracking down in my code which does occur on both).

I am going to try to track down and fix the problem, but I have a fair
bit of learning to do before I will be able to figure it out.

Richard.
