I'm glad to hear you finally figured out what's causing you problems. As to the service packs....I've had 1 installed for quite some time and will install 2 after it's been out a while and debugged completely. Win2k, unlike NT 4.0 and earlier, doesn't require reinstalling the service pack every time you make system changes, this is a good thing!*smile* If you find yourself redoing your system again, I would suggest the service pack be the first thing you do after finishing the initial install. Then install drivers, software etc.

I did some checking at the Iomega site and it seems I'm not the only one with
