Thanks Suby bro. Yeah I guess it's been rough, but I've also just begun getting comfortable with everything so that now I can dive into the nitty gritty

Tony I don't have Hijack installed, just v2.0b11. And I don't remember having this problem with v1.03. The front panel buttons do respond. SHould I install Hijack and see if the problem clears up anyway? And, oh yeah, it usually responds in way less than 20min. Usually (if I'm lucky) within 5min.
