I've had similiar probs with my DIGI002...(Operating System held off interupts for too lon) etc

Try going into DEVICE MANAGER and disabling everything that you don't need. All Network Items PINTER & COM ports. Abosloutely everything that isn't required for running PT. Failing that, right click, MY COMPUTER. Click manage, then go into SERVICES. Disable all non crucial services, ie, network stuff and anything else you see that may not be req for PT. If you're apprehensive to do this...Go to, START-RUN, then type MSCONFIG and create a system restore point prior to stuffing around with any settings you may not know the consequences of. (Whilst in MSCONFIG enviro you can also stop a whole bunch of services form starting up at all by utilising selective startup)

Hope that helps
