Full Complement here today with full backup from Mike and Nicky (thank goodness!). It was manic from 9.30, with two XP reinstalls(one because of a virus, and the other because of dodgy drivers), one printer problem (sorted)and Mike sorted the video problem from last week. 
This was that video files from a DVD camera took hours to upload onto the computer, although the files uploaded quickly onto the centre computer. The USB port was the obvious suspect - was it a 1.1 in disguise? Apparently not! Mike then discovered the true problem Kaspersky!! - it was scanning all the files before allowing them on the computer, this took time for large videro files. Once Mr. Kaspersky was disabled during the upload, things then worked as they should, with a quick upload.
Another problem that was a rather ancient computer (133 MHz Processor 32MB RAM!!!) hoping to install XP. In the end Steve volunteered to take the only good part out (a DVD re-writer - the rest being treated with Colin's sledge) and put it on another old, but better computer for him. I'm sure he will be pleased!!
