Hi Thanks
Yes I had to do all this to fit the GFX card anyway. - Im shelving my VISTA
and going back to XP for now as i cannot get my internet connected, the
supplied hardware from my ISP does not support VISTA yet so that has put the
final nail in the coffin for me with VISTA for the moment.

(
It appears that it going to be a long time before Hardware manufacturers
catch up with vista drivers which is a shame as Microsoft have released an
impressive OS.
Thanks for your help!!
