Something is up with one of my setups that is not that different than his. System themes not working and the sound card not getting picked up, every other boot, it appears. The system is up most of the time anyway, and it took me a bit to pick up on the pattern, but it only started a week or two back. I guess I'll have to start looking for some kind of hung update or something, etc. But anyway, I fiddled with it for probably a half hour when it first happened, even going so far as to download an updated driver. Then it hit me like a bolt from the blue: "Hey, reboot and see what happens."
