so, now that i've introduced my self, i hope that you still have some paitance left for one more newb. Tongue

Ciao,
JDev!

I'm new to mining, old to computers, and i've got this same problem. just realized it was a problem, too. cant seem to find any info on this kinda thing, so now it's time to be more proactive looking for a solution.
