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.
