I don't think nVidia or Dell are going to give me the specs for the card. nVidia doesn't seem to be to keen on giving out specs on any of it's cards. I haven't tried suspend/resume in windows safe mode before. I'll try and see how it goes. Disassembling nVidia drivers is not something I'm really up for, if this were easy wouldn't we have an open source 3D driver for nVidia cards all ready... -Nathan ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Using Tomcat but need to do more?
