I have noticed that when the market starts moving quickly such as Wednesday
after the interest rate announcement the rapid price changes can overwhelm
the software and cause it to crash.  Specifically, I noticed that in a quote
window the time stopped at 14:14 while ESZ2 prices kept changing quickly.
RSPZ2 hardly changed and then at 14:16 (Windows time) the computer crashed
with the quote window still showing 14:14 as the time.  After restarting the
computer, I noticed in a 1 min chart window that the last data saved to the
hard disc was 14:10.  The same thing happened again at 14:33.

I had just changed the FS Tip card (PCI type) that day thinking it might be
the cause but that made no difference.

I am using a Gateway 266 Pentium II with 200 MB RAM.  Using Windows 2000 SP
1, Future Source Manager and Trade Station Build 27.

Has any one had any similar experiences and know the possible cause for the
problem?

Thank you.

Regards,

Ralph
