[Lowfer] ARGO seizure and the cure

[Mitch Powell]

Hello to all contributors who had input to the ARGO lockup - recently described here.

Particular thanks to Chris, John, Laurence and Bill.
The problem: complete lockup after entering some  numbers into the "calibration" menu -
The solution, recommended by all of you - look in the registers -
so REGEDIT was used - looking for the Local Machine - and there was the ARGO file.
This ARGO file was deleted.
ARGO was installed again.... and now I have ARGO - clear and clean - with normal defaults, and
ready to go.

Many thanks guys.
