Touche, good sir!
Mr. Chippings,
I know that Jaguar is a British car; I chose it for my analogy thoughtfully and carefully...and all in good fun. I did see from your sidebar profile that you are from England.
In any case, I sincerely appreciate your replies and advice and hope it will keep coming in the future.
I readily acknowledge that the problem may very well be with the Creative drivers and/or software. Tomorrow I am going to try uninstalling all of the Creative drivers and software and see what happens. I also suspect Symantec's NIS, as this problem really seemed to surface the same day I upgraded to NIS 2003 (I was very careful about completely and thoroughly uninstalling NIS 2002 first).
Also, just for your own edification, I am quickly approaching the point at which the 'last resort' is seeming more and more viable. I did follow the windows repair link in your first reply and read the article. I printed it out. Thank-you.
And a final friendly little jab: my company runs our software on AIX (UNIX), and we don't have problems like this.
I believe I will enjoy these forums and be a frequent visitor. I do believe I have skills to contribure.
Kind Regards,
