Hi Again..

    Thanks for all the tips, ended-up being the video card. Never seen
anything like it but it was a Matrox. Took it out and put mine in to load,
then put the Matrox back and it is fine. Gonna tell them about this problem
in case they have to reload again sometime.

    Once again, you guys and gals are GREAT!!!
