Sorry. I am not a native speaker. I see that my wording is not quite as it should be. I believe that I am setting up something wrong. I would like to believe this is just a fluke, but after five months of testing, trying on six locations with four different stations, with lots of variations of settings, cabling, locations, I am going a bit off.
However, I am not ranting about money, or support, I am just hitting a wall because the problems are showing where they should not, and I see no logical connection why archive tables have errors. But, if its just me, than I guess, than I am sorry to rant on you.
