thanks, I’ve tried your suggestion. it doesn’t fix the problem. I’ve installed and tried a few new themes and they all work fine. I deleted EOS again and reinstalled from within the admin and it still doesn’t work. I just can’t figure it out because as I mentioned I can get EOS to work with a new install of wordpress but can’t get it to work with my existing install even after re-upgrading to wordpress 3.0.4 and reinstalling the theme and turning off all plugins. weird. thanks for your help though!
