Going back tomorrow to pick up the rest for back ups - hopefully if they are still there.

thanks for that info Lonnie!

as for changing out the hardware on the laptop in question, it's my son's work laptop, so i don't think they want him getting inside there and changing stuff around. i bought a gateway with 1.6 processor and 502 meg ram (which i upgraded to 2gig for $80) from best buy. got the system with a bag for $350 bucks.

You could always just get an external drive or use a known current cdg compatible internal & get an external USB enclosure & plug it in on the side.

yeah that's what i do for kma storage and such. the origianl intent for this subject, though, was a was to get video out to the monitors without an s-video outlet.

Actually the original subject of this thread was requesting a fix for a problem with Hoster giving an error. It would really help if people started their own threads instead of tacking their problem on existing threads. Sorry but it just gets very confusing when you have multiple problems for multiple people in the same thread.
