The question was rather a hurried one. However to clarify: My unit is upstairs and has both OS's on, also has the USB/Eth cable modem installed. Her unit is downstairs and has XP only. I want to check to see which unit it is thats palaying up, but if I reboot mine it fixes the problem. Have not as yet tried it in XP/XP combo either for any lenght of time. Lastly does it happen if left connected or does it happen only if she closes down ? Am out most of this morning but will experiment later today and find out some answers. -- Keith Antoine (GANDALF) aka 'SKIPPY' 18 Arkana St, The Gap, Queensland 4061, Australia:: PH:61733002161 Practising Geriatric, Retired Electronics Engineer, Knowall, Brain in storage _______________________________________________ Linux-users mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] Unsubscribe/Suspend/Etc -> http://www.linux-sxs.org/mailman/listinfo/linux-users
