Hmm - this is starting to sound like it is the K56flex retraining. All
data will stop while that happens and it can take a couple of seconds.
Not a good thing for Quake gaming. But it does work for others.

But the first poster said it locked their box up, which seems to be
something rather more serious. And frankly, there is nothing a PM could
do that should cause a machine on the other end to 'lock up'.
