Over the next hour the computer froze the image on the screen about 15 times and I had to restart every time. Left it for two hours and now seems ok but slight burning smell coming from back of unit. Whats up with it?<BR /><BR />Thanks<BR /><BR />Petermh73@hotmail.com<BR /></P></BODY></HTML> Sun, 21 Nov 2004 13:30:45 GMT petermh73 2004-11-21T13:30:45Z RS324e Freezing https://community.sony.ua/t5/pcs-accessories/rs324e-freezing/m-p/135285#M36537 <HTML><HEAD></HEAD><BODY><P>Hi, I have a rs324e - after first booting up the computer reset itself and restarted saying a serious error had occured with the vpu.
