Mea Culpa. I was convinced I was using the Strong Arm version as I thought
I'd asked Andrew for that but it turns out I was using Arm7500.
However, this W10 professional does not show the .cfg extension so it took me
a while to guess the correct file. My netbook with W10 Home does show the
extension. I have "Hide extensions for known filetypes" selected on both
machines. I have no idea why the different appearance.

I'll go back to the drawing board (or fall on my sword).

Thanks for pointing me to the config file.

However, I'm thinking of running VA on the partition as that was always
trouble free. See my reply to Steve Johnson's T.O.M.S. mail on this list
