No prob, I was just wondering. Is is feasible to set up your Windows box to dual boot Win/Linux?? Then you can slowly try to see how that works accessing your multimedia stuff. Are there no Linux drivers for your hardware or are there other issues?? You'd still have the Win option but it may slowly help you wean off the M$ fix. I dual boot but only use Win 98 for about 4 programs there is no equvalent for under Linux yet. Having said that, I haven't booted Windows in a very long time. My .02c worth...
