Thanks.  I looked at that before, but since I was doing a reinstall did
not think it applied, since the
problem kept coming back.

However, long ago, I guess I copied startxwin.bat into my startup folder
instead of copying a link... hence the problem once I rebooted, it
started the old one on login...

Thanks again,

Paul
