Thanks!  This worked great on my Dell Latitude Windows XP laptop and 
"Bruce's Daughterboard" where I tested it first.

However, it took some "fiddling around" with the USB port to get it to 
work.  It looked like it will only work in one of the two USB ports. 
Also, I had to power-cycle and plug and unplug the USB cable in some 
"magic" sequence to get things to work the first time.

Maybe with more experience, this will make more sense.  (I have the same 
trouble with the version that's on my Win98 "recovery" boot disk.)

I'm not complaining...really!!  Good job!

Best regards,

Bruce

P.S.- So pray tell, why isn't there a utility like this that works under 
Windows!???  It can't be all that hard...can it!?
