That's very interesting, Remo. This is one of those really mysterious things that no one's been able to track down, so I don't expect it will have changed in SP 2 (unless by serendipity). I get this issue from time to time (not often) and I have my desktop computer set to Never Sleep (display sleeps after 20 minutes, hard disk "when possible"). So there must be more than combination that creates it - unless display sleep or hard disk sleep is sufficient cause. if you can get a reproducible case, please also try it with these Sleep settings too.
