Kev & Andrew,
This morning a complete format and re-install. Installed gcc and
kernel source and then the driver patch for my modem. It works, using
it now. Must have been last nights compiler updates that blew it
although today i've left it connected. Have to see what happens when
disconnect. Haven't downloaded AVG again but need to look at AV
software i suppose- any suggestions? Been running all day without
crashing so already beaten my XP record. What was Button doing?
Ferrari?? Alonso deserved to walk away with that one.
