I'll be following this thread closely. I have an
nForce 4 + AMD machine, and the video is O.K., but the
disks are something else. Steven has been good enough
to start to help me, but I've been pretty well taken
out of activity by having to move from this house (been
here 40 years) to an apartment half the size. As soon
as things get back to semi normal (about Warpstock time
I guess), I'll be able to check things out and get back
to Steven, answer his questions, and provide new info.

All the best,

John.
