If memory serves, I moved it down to 4K and tested again, with failure. Changed it back to auto. Now tonight, I changed it to 4K and found I could set environmental variables. Changed it back to auto and it still worked. If I can get the same results tomorrow I shall recant and abase myself. I knew that challenging a major was a good way to get shot down.
