Thank you, CF. I can't find my original post re this problem, but the "clean install" finally worked.Thank you so much and everyone else who chimed it. This is the way to go. However, I had to do it 4 times before it finally worked. So my advice is print out the instructions and folow them to the letter. Don't be discouraged if they don't work immediately. Go through the whole thing again and again if you need to. It WILL work.
