Since I have two identical machines that both exhibit the same problem (with two different models/sizes of monitors attached -- one newish Acer widescreen monitor and one older Benq 17" monitor) I'm pretty sure it's not just a specific problem with one box or one monitor or combination thereof. Now that I know the fix, it's easy enough to do and of course I've made notes to guide myself if this situation arises again. -- MELVILLE THEATRE ~ Real D 3D Digital Cinema ~ www.melvilletheatre.com www.creekfm.com - FIFTY THOUSAND WATTS of POW WOW POWER!
