No, an OS re-install is not something I’d have considered. After many horrors & nightmares in the Win 3.1 days in which I lost virtually every file I had, I’d be very slow to mess with the OS. I’m just glad it works as much as it does to be honest.

I might try a re-install, although the thoughts of losing all my settings & configs makes me shiver !!!
