I once had a problem with the system guru'ing when I did a binddrivers. It turns out that I had two different versions of the Microbotics hardframe driver in the expansion drawer. Apparently at one time the driver was called something else, and when I got an upgrade I just copied the new driver to the expansion drawer, but the old one was still there. Removing the old one cured the problem. Sorry, don't remember the names of the drivers. -Fred -- # Fred Fish, 1835 E.
