You're the *only* person so far who has claimed to have this same problem *and* been able to fix it themselves. What is this software you used? Is it available in the public domain anywhere? What exactly is the SPEED POT? I'm desperate for any more information you can give me about this...PLEASE respond! -------(please include "DY" in subj header of mail to this user)-------- Doug "Speaker-To-Insects" Yanega "UT!"

Ditto on the mail. Paul responded to my post though and indicated that he was changing jobs(?). Hope he has usenet access in his new post. As for s/w, Dave Small has written a disk rotation speed checker as part of suite of s/w supporting Spectre GCR. You might want to follow that up.
