Hi mate............merry Christmas, but that is over for you in OZ by now.........have a good new year.........watch out for heatstroke! must be about 100F with you guys right now?..last lot of snow has just about melted here

1. What operating system does your mate run?
2. Does the box run OK after the second log on?
3. How long has this been happening for?.........or, more to the point, has it ever booted "normally", and what has he done since then?

Cheers
