Gerald, thank you very much for replying.  When I use Qube 2 OSRCD it
goes all the way through but then upon reboot it sits at either
"starting up" screen or "checking disks" sreen messages in LCD.  Also,
during restore it says it is restroring 2800WG 2.498, and I have
2700WG, does that actually matter?

Thank You so very much for your replies.
Vadim
