G'day again Ken, After all this time I have recently been having trouble with VM loading. It just hangs. After a reinstall and dropping that DLL in the appropriate place, it seems to get going again, but randomly stops loading. Once it starts everything is fine, but at random times it simply will not start - just sits at the splash screen ...

Thanks for the formatting Ken, It looks good. I can't take the credit for the instructions though! I just re-posted from an education list I belong to.
