Sorta kinda posted...LOL! Repairs over my head. My big computer is at the docs....power supply went belly up and took stuff with it. Has to have a clean install (all programs have to be reinstalled), but the doc said she saved the majority of my stuff. We will see...hoping for tomorrow.

Good luck with the wireless. I understand frustration.
