Thanks for the reply, Ben.

Unfortunately, this is a build for a range of machines, so I cannot be sure
without some additional scripting that the card in the machine is the one
that causes the trouble. I'll look into your suggestion, though. I hadn't
thought of manipulating the registry settings, so thanks.
