Re: Win HP & Swiftx

Hi Leon,
Thanks, It appears to be working ok now. The problem was, having it
shown in the, sorry about that, task bar, I couldn't maximize it by
right clicking on it. What I did, was uninstall it, shut down the
system, ( no power ) applied power, rebooted and reinstalled Swiftx.
Presto! It comes up maximized on opening. Thanks again for a great
product with great support.
