The original post that brought up this issue didn't mention any specific 
NVIDIA chipset version.  I get your point here.  Had the original post 
mentioned something for me to go on other than "NVIDIA chipset", I wouldn't 
have bothered posting my query, and next time I'll do so off list, since it 
seems such an issue now.  Your point is well taken.  I get it.  Let's leave 
it alone now please.  I'm sorry I even posted anything about it.  Gosh and 
golly...
