Can you point to where these threads are?
I spent many hours yesterday reading the community site on behalf of Mr Coward and I was unable to find a solid answer. Most articles implied a firmware issue.
Thank you for taking the time to respond. I appreciate you doing so.

Thanks I will read these although I think I've read some.

Having read the links and no solution offered I'm assuming the solution is reinstall OS and create new user?
i.e loss all the data.
If so where can I find authenicated instructions to do so.
Thanks.
