    SPSS 11 can't start up

    Hi thanks for that Delta. I'll have a play with it. Most stats stuff seems to presume you understand the math behind them which is a bit of an issue with me! I couldn't even begin to work out how to get my datasets into R! I think I need to get my old stats books out again. I know about...

    Thanks for that, it does work, but after a few days it goes again which is why I thought it may be a problem with the router hardware. :)

    sticky trackpad pointer on windows xp / bootcamp

    Thanks for the reply! Yep, only in windows and I'm careful just to use the one finger. When it happens, it is more difficult to move horizontally, though it is still sticky on the verticals.
