[Q] any known AMD issues?

I started from scratch again. This time everything worked except one glitch 
with Win32NativeFonts: the plugin ends up in the wrong place. On this 
machine, I have Squeak (VM, Image, etc in: "C:\WINDOWS\Desktop\NewSqueak". 
When I install Win32NativeFonts via the package Loader, the plugin gets put 
into: "C:\WINDOWS\Desktop\NewSqueak\WINDOWS\DESKTOP\NEWSQUEAK". No big deal, 
I just move it into the right folder and it works.

I must have had a virus or something before nuking the HD. 
SqueakVI4-3.4.beta.5156.image is working great again :)

Thanx,

Ken
