Also, when downloading from the net all i can get my supernova to say is estimated time left downloading, he repeats either part or all of that all the time, depending on how fast the download is, I can leave it to it and get on with something else but I don't seem to be able to tab to where it says the transfer rate etc, what am I doing wrong? someone said I should have the task bar for this. Help!! Thanks Trace
