Thanks William,
I have exactly the same setup and versions - only diff is I'm on AMD 
running 64 bit, but have never had problems until now. As mentioned I 
have an almost identical system at home and it is fine. Also, this was 
working up to about a week ago, so I guess I need to check my logs and 
see what has been added that may be causing this.
