Cygwin seems to not work very well with SMP >systems. Also check the fan speed. High RPMs cause vibration which has been known to derail bits from the CPU. If you open your case and see a lot of "dust" that's probably extra lost bits caused by vibration. Running your fan at the wrong speed can eventually completely deplete your CPU of bits, effectively turning it into a 16MHZ Z80. cgf
