Are you using Birdie Prefs (don't know if it comes with Birdie2000 or not)? What is Birdie doing if anything to your system? Are you currently running any other GUI enhancements (aspect correction, 3d gads, etc)? There are some GUI enhancements that renders birdie useless so you may want to play around with some of the hacks you have. Do you have a direct link for their guide so I can see what they are doing and suggest changes as needed...
