Hello Mike

While I was waiting for a reply I downloaded and am right now trying 
(V BOX HEADLESS TRAY) neet little program.

I'll try PX on WinXP then!

I do notice the 16 bit doors being a little laggy but maybe that will 
change some after I move this setup over to server with more power.

I have tweaked everything I can think of in XP that I can think of.

Thanks for all the help so far, laughing I may have more though.

Greg
