Oooer, the crashing doesn't sound good.<br>
<br>

<br>
Oooer... Rather bad!<br>
<br>
<br>
Is that really some problem drivers? Really after all these years?<br>
<br>
Or is it running uncased and getting licked by hungry dogs and fur?<br>
Or is there low voltage to it for whatever is plugged in?<br>
Or is the memorycard failing?...<br>
<br>
I may well be experimenting with such a device soon myself for use as a <br>
print server to 'network attach' an old printer.<br>
<br>
Good luck!<br>
