    Not tried the roll back yet as I kept being booted out!. Will try tomorrow.

    I have just unplugged the ac adaptor and using laptop on battery power only, very strange as its been working ok with no problems for the past hour or so. As soon as I go back on the mains it crashed again.

    Any ideas?
