I just did all this last weekend, and the basic operation I use is: - two passes at standard mode (this bombed for me at first, so adjust timings/etc and repeat) - two passes at enhanced mode (this bombed on me once, so timings again and restart from the beginning) - and (I skipped this) one pass at 'all' mode, just to be sure Once it passes 2 standard and 2 enhanced, its a safe bet that it's clean.. -- Disconnect
