Hey, you forget amigas have souls! they go wrong when they want to (when
they feel like it)
Mine also seems to be hit by the same problem though. there are two points
when it normally does it. 1/ when the DOpus screen first opens (progress
bar) 2/ when WBStartup has finished (it spasms, then crashes), or the
mouse pointer just freezes to the spot.
It only does this every once in a while though (1 / 30 times) but sometimes
my Boot-partition gets invalidated : /
