Thanks so much....I've been on now for 30 minutes, NO DROPSIE....I think being unplugged for 12 hours did the trick....Thanks so much...I get so frustrated when puter don't hum in there...Linda
You're very welcome. One thing I learned from my techno-husband....if it doesn't work, unplug it. Sometimes he unplugs EVERYTHING.....telephone line, electric plug, etc, and waits. It's amazing how many times they'll re-set themselves!
