Yes. Laptops are notorious for having horrible compatibility with anything other than the OS they are shipped with. This is because to cram so much into so little space many Laptop manufacturers put in tons of proprietary hardware then only code drivers for whatever OS they intend to ship with it. Worse still they only ship the drivers, never really releasing them. -- Steve Lamb -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
