Ok, normally i have found that there is a sound blaster program running on windows startup that is putting them back in. Off the top of my head i cant remember what it is. One way of seeing if this is the case is to use msconfig to take out all of the startup programs, and see if it stops putting the lines back in. If so, then its just a case of figuring which one puts the lines in. HTH Pete.
