Umm... also, sometimes all it takes, is, remove the card, reboot without
it,
then reinstall the card, but this time in another slot and then boot up
again.
For some reason, sometimes this will fix things.
And yeah, sort of glad it turned into a "Hello, we old timers are still
here" thread :)
So, hi to everyone else that still likes to stop by from the olden days
and hi to anyone that is new as well :)
As for that dongle issue, lets us know how things work out?
I actually got sick of my old one and decided to move up to the USB
dongle which is a zillion times better.
Easy to pop on and off and slap on my other puter and so on.
If you think the card isn't working, as was suggested here, thats an
easy test, just plug something else into it and find out.
