Doug,
That would be great, I have again tested it and used the
old inf file I had from one of my earlier ghosts and used
this on my current XP and again all settings are a noshow
so there must be something else going wrong since the inf
file cannot be corrupt.
Maybe the scecli.dll has been corrupted or something or
maybe NTFS rights come into play,...
How do I know what your test results will be from virtual
PC? Will you post it on this board or do you need my
email?
Sincerely,
B

have downloaded the documentation, and I'll set up a Pro

findings. It'll be tomorrow before I can get to it
though.
