Hi parkdale
That's heavy reading
I think this is no longer an issue, for 2 reasons, firstly, renluop system I thought was dell, and would be accounted for FP, and secondly, it would have been very quickly picked up if the dell had an issue on FP, by the number of users of the dell pc
I do remember the start of FP, and we could set FP at bios level (enable/disable etc), which for many years has not been a bios option (similarly, we could set timings - think it was option between 2086 and 3086 systems)
I could be wrong sorry, as now feeling soo old
Many thanks
John
