   There are several possibilities.  It could be a driver issue (1.8 used

   laptop or desk top?


Could possibly be heat... System 1 is an older desktop. System2 is a newer laptop which I usually leave plugged in and on 24/7.

System 1 was cool when I tested last night/this morning; I didn't retry on system2 as I had just reinstalled it. I'll try leaving system1 on for a while then check if the error is reproducable.

Thanks for the prompt reply,

Dru
