Thanks Dr., but honestly, the Windows setup I have kicks butt on the other TWO Macbook Pros I have, so I'll stick with Windows, thanks :) (It has 64GB of RAM) In fact, the name of my Windows machine is "BEEFY BEAST", if that tells you anything...
Also, as I indicated in my final email to Daniel, he nailed the solution, and I was very thankful and happy for the assistance. I sent his solution to the list so that others could see how to fix this problem. I feel bad that you missed seeing that last email, and therefore took time to try and help me. I do thank you for your efforts, and wish you an excellent day and weekend!
