[QUOTE="druid9, post: 480273, member: 28347"] Thanks for the reply. For the record it turns out I had more problems than I thought. 1. Network issues with Vista "Unidentified Network "local access" only" a known issue which is a right PIA see here for a long thread with possible solutions [url=http://thevistaforums.com/index.php?showtopic=14072&st=0]Unidentified Network "local access" only - Windows Vista Forums[/url] Not sure which one worked, but I have a feeling it was an issue Norton Internet Securty, which even though I had not set it up yet (came with the PC) seemed to be interfering with network traffic. Solved that one. 2. Codec issues because of the pre-installed PowerDVD on the machine. I did uninstall it as required under the SAF instructions, but seemed to still have stuff in the registry which was interfering. Ended up reinstalling Vista to solve that one. 3.
