All done & dusted.... smile I've loaded Empire Total War which I got a few months back & I must say I'm impressed with the graphics so far....

I did have a problem with Carol complaining about the smoke.... Sad  But I solved that by moving the PC nearer to the window.... smile

Thanks for all the help...... Salute
