Tony,

I tried using the cwsdpmi.exe program in the way you suggested.  I did get more video settings showing up in the fractint.cfg than I did before. 

Sorry to say, though, that none of this makes any difference to XP.

Anyway,  here's a little gift from my archives to show my appreciation for all your efforts (as well as everyone else's on this list).  It's been a long time since I posted any of my formulas, so I hope this works.

Bill
