Hey folks.

My Rio has occasional freezing problems (and I'm not talking about the weather). The music stutters a bit for about 30 seconds and then the drive light stays on and the machine (although the visuals keep going) keeps playing. The only remedy is a power cycle (which in a car means removal and replacing). Even the serial / ethernet port become unresponsive. Any ideas how to force a sync on the disks to clean up any rubbish that might be lying around ??

Thanks in advance,

Rich.

2.0 has some bug that can look like this; does it happen on v1.03? Remember 2.0 is still in beta.
