So if all else fails, try getting your hands on a Windows machine? Good luck! I remember just how miserable it felt...
Wow. That sounds super frustrating! Luckily emusan's advice worked like a charm. If Ermine starts going all funky on me I'll try fixing it from Windows-XP. I want to get that running on my Mac through bootcamp anyway.

Thanks for all the help, folks!
