Henry, if you haven't yet seen it, go to the Files section and look at the
file named
"Sprunger Guide to MS ver8.doc ". I found and documented a lot of the v8
system tester issues there. Perhaps it will help you, and perhaps not. If
you have found some new issues that aren't in that document, it sure would
be helpful to know.
