Sharpcap imaging software crashing

[Dezerker]

Hi all,

Having resurrected an old DMK 21AU04 camera, I updated Sharpcap and went outside to image the planets.  On the first imaging run, it started ok, but then a message popped up saying "Writing buffered frames", and, while the software still appeared to be doing its thing, the capture didn't stop at the end of the timed imaging run, and the software had crashed - it wouldn't let me click any buttons or exit.  I left it to see if it would catch up and resolve, but nothing...

I'm using a reasonably swift laptop, and regardless of whether I write to the hard drive or a little portable WD drive, or what capture settings I seem to use within Sharpcap, the same thing happens?

It always worked before with the older version of Sharpcap - anyone come across this before or have any ideas of what I'm doing wrong?
