Michael, thanks for the link to driver updates, I hope this will improve things. How do you get to know about these updates as they are released ? Also, I appreciate this may be a dumb question, but how do you know whether updates have already been downloaded ie i look down the list on the link and know that I previously got some updates, but don't know which ones ?
