I've been happily using my Empeg for quite a while. Recently it started to intermittently do some weirdness. I will be playing along and then in the middle of a song it will just stop making sound. I look at the screen and the second counter is not advancing anymore. I hit the next song button and things continue normally....for a while. Sometimes it can run and run for hours no problem, other times it happens over and over.

I already thought maybe the IDE cable was loose or something, opened it up to check, but looks good.

Any other ideas? I'm using the last 2.01 consumer firmware.
