update
OK, updated the NERO - still the same problems.See attached log.
Changes - I now see my DMA is disabled, and cannot get it back on - will try reinstalling the driver as suggested in the forum.
As for Adaptec Ultra160-SCSI driver (ADPU160M.SYS) I have no idea what it is, how it got onto my laptop and whether or how I should get rid of it?
Thanks for your support and hope it hasn't run dry yet...
