Well its a PIII 750 desktop. It isn't trying to save power. Suppose it could be heat related...but I don't really know if this system steps down speed or just halts when the heat hits threshold. It does seem like it is happening after doing a full rebuild, which is 100% load for 15 minutes or more. Hehe...maybe it's just tired. I'm not too concerned about it. Just have to be careful about what I report on the list here :-) Best, Jim _______________________________________________ Flightgear-devel mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mail.flightgear.org/mailman/listinfo/flightgear-devel
