Thanks for the good wishes; Indeed I did consult the AppDB. I noticed that Paul was having the same problem but no results from it yet. I figure just tagging on "me too!" doesnt really help anybody much on the DB page.
Once I hopefully sort this out, I will post a solution etc onto Paul's post on AppDB.


Entanglement - thanks for the suggestion. Will give it a try.
The noise factor isn't really a problem. Under Windows when running EVE it sometimes sounds like I'm starting up a Boeing!
Last small query about the driver disabling: Do I need to restart for effect, or is it immediate?
