No idea, Jeff. Hopefully someone will have some insight to this and will
share their theory. I just wanted to say that a repair install or reinstall
has been the only "tip in the scales" for users I've helped with this
problem. The other fixes are worth trying "just in case" but more ofen than
not, your approach is what it all comes down to in the end. Glad to hear
that you have this sorted and thanks for letting folks know how you fixed
it.
