Thanks Larry,
It was the "-" button that got it switched over to Digital. Just as I was reviewing your
note, I was connected to Dell Support again and this fellow walked me through it, after a
couple of retries, and we got it working properly. I had looked through all the
documentation I had, including the 1901FP CD Disk and must have missed that little step.
The Dell Support person I was on the phone with last night, spent a total of almost 2
hours with me and did not figure this out!
Thanks for the reply and now I can get down to configging (sp!) and transferring to my new
system!
