In the manner of our late great prez RMN, "Let me make one thing perfectly clear!" This post is NOT a vote of no confidence for Dudley who is a Flex Wizard. I'm just querying the brain trust just in case someone may have useful input. This august group has a lot of grey matter in fine working order and may think of something overlooked.

I have an F5K which has been working really swell for months with no problems encountered loading new S/W releases. I'm not doing anything fancy, just SSB using only one of the RCVRs. I upgraded to the latest S/W and then... Everything works fine again except PSDR crashes at random but frequent intervals. Sometimes throwing an error window about an external device raising an exception and sometimes not. Sometimes cycling the on/off on-screen switch restores operation till another crash and sometimes that just causes the exception error to display. Rebooting the computer and or just restarting PSDR seems to have the same result making no difference.

By telephone Dudley professionally guided me through installing the "legacy" 1394 driver and confirmed that I have a good TI chipset. It is capable of bidirectional streaming at the 800 data rate whereas the F5K is now streaming both ways full time at 400 data rate vice the previous S/W release using interrupt driven service for the 1394 data. Dudley told me this new demand on the firewire interface is even more demanding of a "good" cable and the driver. So, Dudley is having a new cable mailed to me to arrive real soon now.

Yesterday the MTBF for crashing was on the order of a couple hours whereas before Dudley's intervention it was on the order of a couple minutes. This afternoon things took a turn for the worse. Invoking PSDR and clicking on [Start] in Panafall display mode gives a uniform Pink waterfall that moves down ward at the normal rate filling the entire space with a nice restful pink. There is no audio. Repetitively clicking the [Start/Stop] on-screen button doesn't elicit different behavior.

Suggestions?

What is the keystroke combo to get the temperature pop-up displayed in
PSDR? My mind has gone blank.
