Still played awfully well tho. Hello Wayne, Yes, I know it's checked but can't understand Bertil's saying it isn't checked. By the way, Bertil is with the SSDF and they test the programs so the question becomes are they testing Tiger with the bad default setting? I am waiting for a reply from bertil. The only explanation that I can see for his statement is that he has the dos version and perhaps it wasn't set that way in dos. Maybe? Mel
