| HI!
|
| Now I'm sure the problem depends on the display drivers. There is a
function
| on the property page to save settings in profiles and use this settings
with
| keyboard shortcuts. This settings dont 'remember' desktop settings... I
will
| try to update this drivers first. I will contact this newsgroup later
with a
| new question if I still have problems after updating the drivers. Thank
you
| very much anyway....
