I can understand that, which is the reason I thought I would have to install the appropriate nVidea driver for Windows :-) > Is the LG 23" the only monitor, or a 2nd monitor?

LM17.3 (the Host) will not permit me to install the nVidea driver 3.52.63 again unless I install another driver first - therefore overwriting it - and then reinstalling 3.52.63, which seems rather pointless! Any further hints would be much appreciaterd.
