I was remiss on that one.

I've never done one.  If I remember right you get to that option by 
hitting ctrl-alt-numlock-numlock, is that right?  Then you need a lot of 
formated floppies.

I was focused on hardware then I started receiving suggestions about 
software. I believe that reinstalling the driver was suggested.  Since I 
have not changed that driver and IF it was the problem I reasoned that 
something must have happened to it. Seemed logical at the time. 
Remember I'm not a programmer or a techie, just an interested user.
