YAY! Glad it's working.
It looks good and that's a very ... patriotic ... table cloth and decorations.
I've been away for a few days. (Business trips suck)
For future reference, the F8 problem is caused because before windows loads your USB keyboard isn booted. The motherboard can use a PS2 keyboard and mouse natively. As far as the bootloader was concerned, you didn't kave a keyboard plugged in.
In most modern BIOS settings is one for "USB Keyboard" (set it to "yes" . That will let the computer use the USB Keyboard before Windows is loaded.
Thanks Phi! Wow... now the Ph8 problem phinally makes sense. o.O
And yep, whole house is red white and blue, all year round, inside and out. We even keep our Christmas tree up year round (it's all patriotic decorations, so it works phor July Phorth too. )
And to complete this thread... hopefully. lol:
I logged into MxO late last night phor the phirst time on the new puter, and it runs smoooooth as silk, NO lag, all on the highest graphic settings! EVEN in the dense node phield in Creston! WOOT! Now I can really play with those user opts! Even HL to HL takes a 'split' second, and I could go on and on and on about all the details I can see now, that I've never seen before.
Thanks ALL for your help during this ...trying time. o.O And thank you phor listening to me whine about it. ^_^
