Re: update

Sheesh, Bill. You keep fixing things before I even know I need them fixed!
I too am having Guide 8 crash with a kernel dll error when I try to access
the Quick Info menu -- but only on my desktop, not my elderly laptop. I
originally thought it was connected with a hard drive motor problem I'm
having on the desktop but had just concluded it was something with the
program. And the old laptop has a broken screen brightness display so it
will be nice to be able to experiment setting it to a darker shade of red
(currently I'm using red acetate to dim the guy down).
