I did another search for ATI Mobility Radeon 9000 and found Driver Boost, downloaded it, ran the scan and found 52 items needing updated. Still a skeptic. I went no further but I still have Driver Boost installed. The scan did indicate that my Display Adaptor is up to date (contrary to what the other scan found). Soooo----I may be "barking up the wrong tree" in thinking the Display Adapter to be the root of my problem. Hey, is anyone out there any more? I have not had a post from pctt in about a month.
