     Saga continues. re-booted from GUI and it went to blue screen. Shut 
down and returned in about 2 hours and turned it on and it worked again. 
So I guess from what you say this is the way it will be. Unless I shut 
down from GUI vs. rebooting. BTW, System/Network Connections shows empty 
box. System/Network Proxy shows box with Location:Default and tick in 
'Direct internet connection. Everything else is greyed out. Thanks.
