The new account opening process had me grinding my teeth. I entered my email address and password, (checked before clicking OK) which it accepted, and the task downloaded and started running.

But whenever I tried to re-enter my email address to acces my account I was informed that it did not exist.

The only way I could finally get around it was to detach from the project and start from scratch. Even then, it did not accept the user name I replaced the Windows logon with, but kept the Windows logon name. I eventually managed to change to the user name I wanted by using the account details editor.

You\'ve received two Models. Hope all is going well.

With 495.48 MB of memory indicated, your machine probably has on-board graphics (i.e., no separate video card). This can be a problem. Screensaver should be disabled and latest graphics driver installed (free from the Motherboard vendor).

Instructions for the update and many other helpful hints, including making backups, can be found here:
