Hi guys,

My MK2A just started freezing up mysteriously. Basically, it boots up fine and plays and operates correctly until it hits 2 minutes of playback and then everything stops except for Hijack, which can still be accessed and manipulated. During the 2 minute period, I can switch songs, spinning up the hard drive in the process or just let it play without intervening- either way it freezes at 2 minutes. I've tried the FAQ, reinstalling Consumer 2.0 final and Hijack, replacing the cable, and inspecting the IDE header. Everything checks out, but it still freezes up. If it happens at exactly two minutes, I would think it is software related, but I've put on a fresh copy and it did nothing to help.

Anyone ever seen this before or know why 2 minutes is the magic number? How can I fix this? This is driving me nuts.

Happy New Year!

Stu
