Thanx tapiiri for your quick response. I was about to do as you requested however my computer pretty much froze everytime I booted it up. So in the end I did a system re-install so I assume my problems should have now disappeared. Everything seems to be running fine now - all I have to do is re-install all my additional software now. Thanx again for your response
