OK, I guess I'm just stupid....I did the magnet....several times, always came up with the same mod value...so while searching the internet for more help, I came across a posting that said to make sure your fonts are set as small as they will go. Hummmmmm...went into control panel and changed the font setting, guess what...everything is, and was just fine, my display was only showing the last 4 numbers...the screen shot's show the way it was with large fonts, then change to small fonts. who knew. oh well, thanks for the help...sometimes I look for problems when i don't have any
