Silly question Mog - Are all the leads firmly pushed in? I had red rings once and pulled all the cables out and then back in again more firmly and the red lights went.

Good News - I woke up with Drew Barrymore

Bad News  - It was actually Michael Barrymore

Good News - Well, at least you actually woke up...

Reminds me of the old line regarding beer-goggles: "I went to bed with Bo Derek and woke up with Bo Didley"
