    Hi Jim, well I really have had nothing but trouble with F8. I can 
get zero help from this list so I will just relax and enjoy F7. As for 
your problem, nmd what ever that is must be working :-)

    On F8 the sound is failing and no known cause for this. I will soon 
not be working on anything. I think it is a big problem.
