I have had quite a few of this sort of crash from time to time, and 
have repeatedly checked that alignment exceptions are indeed on.

Recently I have had a fully repeatable series of crashes, which 
eventually leave the machine locked, so I can't do *where. It's 
triggered by clicking on DeleGate's icon bar icon while SyncDiscs is 
running. I do have a reason for doing this, but I'm trying to educate 
myself out of doing it again. The last time this happened was this 
morning, and WimpLog reports this:

(I tried to use the offered "continue" option when StrongED crashed)
Can anyone make any sense of all this?

Best wishes,

Peter.
