Thanks Nick,

Appreciate you taking the time to look at my problems....  First off, I
screwed up by not adding a subject before hitting the send button.  Not
sure if it was a mistake to correct that by sending a new one with a
subject line included (see: Box rebuild issues).

Although I didn't see Dean's email -- I had already deleted/recreated my
capture cards 3x.  

Looking at my error logs (should have thought of that myself) I noted
that I forgot to copy those from my orginal install.  Is there a way to
recreate them?

BTW:  the error log only listed missing one file -- even though quite a
few were missing, which I thought was kinda odd.
