Hi Jeff,


Machines have nothing in common except the graphics card (3D Prophet DDR).
They come from a different batch.  I've just tried plugging in a Matrox G400
DH and removed all previous driver files, but to no avail.  As far as
installing is concerned, we always use online install, for IE as well as
Flash.

A bit of bad luck here, since these are the two webdesign production
machines.

I've tried searching the web but couldn't find anything related.
