All, Just talked with David on the phone. (Hey! found out we are neighbors) What seems to be happening is that when he boots into cooker (the main version on his box.)

My problem is ... with 2 CD burners I've worked with I have had no problems at all getting them to work from install on. (since 7.1 if you can believe that.)

Fom memory a patched one is available now but its short of NFS which was what was apparently causing all the problems. Regards, Colin Close Want to buy your Pack or Services from MandrakeSoft?
