Just to let everyone know how grateful I am for the help. I finally have Mandrake reinstalled and it was by pushing a button at the bottom of where you key in the settings...it automatically installed and I don't even really remember what I did as I had gone over and over and over things, gotten the settings off of my husbands computer, keyed in the ones for the Okanagan area..all of then and then bingo. I am happy but lacking total joy as I don't know what I did right, sometimes more important than know what I did wrong
