Don,

You should probably contact support on this. Not everybody is having that problem and they may be able to uncover why your system is not running RB the same as everybody else's.

Every year when I upgrade, my first several rounds of problems usually end up being caused by differences in my system. Once I identify them and fix them, its smooth sailing.

Until the reason why your system is behaving differently than everybody else's is identified, reloading from the hard drive probably won't change anything either.
