:-) Hey thanks BUT something has gone amiss here I am not the origianl poster , in fact my line as posted works fine, my RAN is detected, all of it I was only pointing out the spaces as in append="mem=128m" or append = "mem=128m" I have the second line with the spaces which does work, with larg M or small m but does not work without the spaces as in the first line Thought it might help the original poster Will the original poster please stand up :-) At least tell us if you fixed it yet Regards to all Phil in (very nearly) hurricane blown Puerto Rico scott lockhart wrote: Yes, I believe this may be your problem Phil.
