If you suspect hardware problems or critical timing, you could propably (additional to Jerry's ideas) vary voltages as well as the temperature of your board. If you see any correlation to the number of crashes you will have a hardware problem for sure. I've had a problem with some flash memory on a broken 8548 board last week which was working more reliable on higher temperatures... @:-] Regards, -- Clemens Koller _______________________________ R&D Imaging Devices Anagramm GmbH Rupert-Mayer-Str. 45/1 81379 Muenchen Germany http://www.anagramm-technology.com Phone: +49-89-741518-50 Fax: +49-89-741518-19
