Yes! This looks very familiar... I'll copy this message to text, then
boot into linux and try this out. I didn't fully grasp the meaning of
the hamregisry. If I remember the messages correctly (it's hard to
recite what error messages I got, short of hand writing everything,
since I'm writing this from windows and the trouble's in linux..) there
may have been a problem with the hamregistry. I'll go look now and write
down exactly what it says.
