Good thought. I looked at the event log but at the time of the attempted
connect nothing is captured (I will try a bit more to see for sure). I also
looked at the processes running to kill the ones that are different from a
near exact machine that works. The video driver I will have to play with
since it's running a Nvidia FX3700 and the divers are a couple of months
apart from one machine to the next. The latest is on the machine that works.
I found that latest driver seemed to fail with Solidworks and large files. So
on the locking machine I went one version back. Solidworks is happy at the
moment. The machine that works has not goon into large files yet.
