H3 Desktop Crash

Just updated to 3.05 on my H3, middle of a show, touched the screen and BAM lost the desktop.

2 Questions:

When I have a desktop crash, how do I get it back or do a quick restart, what keys are there. The backup UPS kept me running when I wanted to reboot the machine. So is there a reboot sequence and also a relaunch of the desktop. Also how do you reboot a DP2000 that hard locks. Are there some command keys to do this on both the console and the DP.

Also after the crash, I cannot delete any files. I am guessing that the crash scrambles some permissions. ANy fix on this. I cannot rename etc.

I have both a Wholehog 3 and an iPC so I would love to know how.

  • Well, it happened again last night. We programmed all day-no problems.

    Came time to start the show, and crash again. This time we only pressed the pig key. The displays were off and never came on.

    I already sent the show file. Here is the setup

    1-WH3
    2 DP-2000
    2-Playback wings
    1 USB Keyboard
    1 Logitech Trackball mouse.
    1 3COM commercial rackmount switch
    3.05 software version
    2 external monitors
    iMac running WSYWIG & Bootcamp (Off at the time of the crash)

    Hog is sending out DHCP.

    Have changed cables. Moved the ports, still crashes.
