Hey JaysArcade,
Good news and bad news... After shutting down and coming back to it in the morning, it worked (dunno why)... I love it!
Bad news is that I then added the MarqueeMod, unblocked, installed in VA root folder... and it messed up VA so it doesn't work anymore. (Does the MarqueeMod need to be updated as well?)
Thanks, this VA looks real nice and I know the neighborhood kids will love it.
