You are correct in your upbraid of my general half-hearted lameness, but my work and life don't really allow in-depth study of an entirely new Operating System, such as Linux. If I still had the amount of free time available to me 10 years ago, I would learn and study more of the open source phenom. As life is, I simply admire it.
I try to read all the documentation provided. I save my boxes and instructions for everything. I make stabs at the internet (search engines/customer support databases) but I don't have a troubleshooting procedure. Please give me a little credit. I somehow made it here, after all. I could use a pragmatic primer on troubleshooting. The info included on PCMech's disc was a bit lacking in detail. Yes, the list is endless, and that can be a problem in, and of, itself.

An education is better than simple admonition.

I've gone through the sigmadesigns link, did that before exposing my ignorance.
I was lazy with commmandsoftware, but I registered, created name/password and all that jive, in addition to paying $30+. Guess I figured they'd want to satisfy a bona fide customer. My mistake, I've made it before, but maybe never again. I'll try the helpful link you provided as well as the techadvice link.
Take me to school, Statica, but know that my 56k modem doesn't put out more than 28,8.
Again, thank you.
