Just my usual shot gun suggestion. Shut down everything and remove the power cord, especially from the computer itself. Leave the computer and bob unplugged for 5 minutes and then plug them back in and restart. Sometimes this drains the PCI bus power more completely than just shutting down. Many times things come back up with a new view of the world and work. The power bus drain is an assumption based on this working several times but I can't say for sure that's what makes things work. Hope it works for you. Next would be reseating the Nitris boards in the computer.

When you do, the system becomes extremely sluggish, the clip refuses to play and the error 'SFPlayConsumer::Execute TIMEOUT' appears on the record monitor. If you wait around ten seconds and remove the effect then it behaves normally. This seems to happen with any effect or when you apply a colour correction. Tried new project and restarting PC and BOB with no success. Tried Googling and there was some mention of Wacom drivers, but I don't have any Wacom device installed. There was also a mention that it might be corrupt media or bad stripe, so I captured some new media on the C drive (to rule out the SCSI devices), put it into a new sequence but without success.
