Well after another two hour chat session...7 hours total......and about 100,000,000 (read 100 million) reseats of the allthe cards in the machine (can't tell you how many cuts I have in my fingers....you know how hard it is to type with open wounds?) it appears that my machine and video display is back.

not too bad I only spent 7 hours with support and spent another 5 hours keeping myself from throwing it all out the window... I can now start the work I did could not finish during the week.

now I can start on my other problem....why the heck does real player not work on my treo.....UUURRRGGGGHHHH


Jim I know where you were going, I do have a back and took some more files while in safe mode and had already resolved to scraping the drive but I could not get that to work either.....
